Glory, Opportunity, Devotion & Shame. Poem by Tom Zart

The dangers we face as a nation today
Are much the same as those of the past.
It's up to us to learn from our mistakes
For liberty and independence to last.

Benjamin Franklin one of God's best
Was gifted by wisdom beyond all.
He believed the Bible foretold the future
Of any who reject their call.

Question is have we lost resolve
To endure hardship, sacrifice and pain?
Future generations will review the outcomes
Of glory, opportunity, devotion and shame.
