Everyone is so upset because prayer was taken out of the schools;
Blaming one person for destroying the lives of our precious little jewels.
What would have happened if prayer hadn’t been taken away?
Would we believe that our children had a chance to see a brighter day?
Is not allowing prayer in schools really the cause of our children’s destruction?
Was ending prayer in schools the real spiritual interruption?
I don’t think so; I think that it’s just a simple excuse to place the blame
So that we can hide from our own miserable shame.
The problem isn’t that prayer was taken out of the schools,
And if we continue to believe that, we are acting as mere fools.
For, if your child was taught how to pray for himself at home;
Prayer will be with him in school, in the streets, in a crowd, even when he’s alone.
It’s not against the law for your child to pray to himself;
Nor, is it against the law for him to pray for everyone else.
If family prayer is said in the home before a family departs for the day,
God is sure to keep, guide and protect them each along the way.
Therefore, in the halls of our schools isn’t the only place Satan is free to roam;
He’s everywhere because we, individually, have taken prayer out of our homes.
“Charity begins at home” is a simple rule,
And if we follow it, prayer will always be in school.

A different view on this subject of taking prayer out of schools. I agree that if we arm our children with prayers at home, seeing parents and other adult praying a sstrong foundation will be built. I went to a church school myself and I feel that the church, the school and the home helped to strengthen that spiritual bond. I like the poem and the rhyming couplets that conveyed your feelings.
