Don't Let Them Take (George Donald McGraw)


They're trying to take the Bible out of our schoolrooms
They say our children can't give thanks with prayer
But if they take our Bible out of our school rooms
Then how can this old world get anywhere
Don't let them take the Bible out of our school rooms
Don't let them close the door of your childs heart
Don't let them rob our children of salvation
If you do we're going to lose them from the start
Our leaders had a meeting up in Washington
They write that laws that keep our country free
If we cease to teach our children about Jesus
No school room could teach them what they need
Don't let them take the Bible out of our school rooms
Don't let them close the door of your childs heart
Don't let them rob our children of salvation
If you do we're going to lose them from the start
If it's right to allow liquor in most counties
On the newstand see the sinful pictures there
If it's right for moving pictures of corruption
Dear God how can we say it's wrong for prayer
Don't let them take the Bible out of our school rooms
Don't let them close the door of your childs heart
Don't let them rob our children of salvation
If you do we're going to lose them from the start
