The Old Path








 



This is a good read, but sending it to you more because when I saw the first picture I knew you had to see it.  Enjoy.....
 

This is good.
I wish the old paths were before us instead of behind us.
 
I believe they are.  Just a ways ahead.




THE OLD PATHS 
I liked the old paths,
when moms were at home.
Dads were at work.
Brothers went into the army.
And sisters got married BEFORE having children!

Crime did not pay;
Hard work did;
And people knew the difference.

Moms could cook;
Dads would work;
Children would behave.

Husbands were loving;
Wives were supportive;
And children were polite.

Women wore the jewelry;
And Men wore the pants.

Women looked like ladies;
Men looked like gentlemen;
And children looked decent.

People loved the truth,
and hated a lie.

They came to church to get IN,
not to get OUT!

Hymns sounded GODLY;
Sermons sounded helpful;
Rejoicing sounded normal;
And crying sounded sincere.

Cursing was wicked;
Drugs were for illness.

The flag was honored;
America was beautiful;
And GOD was welcome!


We read the Bible in public;
Prayed in school;
And preached from house to house.

To be called an American was worth dying for;
To be called an American was worth living for;
To be called a traitor was a shame!

I still like the old paths the best!




'The Old Paths' was written by a retired minister who lives in Tennessee.
