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 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. | |
