Yesterday
Shall we work or shall we play
Much depends on yesterday
Should events just fade away
or keep returnming along our way
Give us back December 7, 41
Be as if we've just begun
Hitler would expand due to our isolation
What kind of fortress would then be our nation
For the early morning of 9-11
Skipping that event would keep us in Heaven
People would still read about and admire us
But admiration always slips away
Wake this sleeping giant though
Can we make the enemies regret their yesterdays
Will GI's fight and fall with wounds
Because they felt the hurts of yesterdays
Our surrogate fighters have volunteered
and served so well
How would needed draftees fare
In the face of future battles hell
We pray for God to bless us again although
We have slipped as a nation of Christians
It won't be Noah's boat to save some species
Nor David's bow to bring down creepies
But a return to prayer won't hurt one bit
Throughout this world who've seemed to quit
As we search out a better way
To keep from dreading yesterday
