“Give me liberty or give me death!”
Meant every word with every breath.
.
Patrick Henry I would like to have known.
Recorded in history and not alone!
.
Proclamation of freedom, liberty bell,
Independence, self-rule, and governed well!
.
Free government but not anarchy!
Lawlessness in governing deliberately.
.
Second Continental Congress in 1776
Declared independence, learned some new tricks.
.
Keeping order! Savages put down!
Liberty extending! There will be no crown!
.
Over three hundred years ago the main thrust,
Liberty! Like, “In God we trust!”
.
Washington, a totally God fearing man!
Accomplished only what God’s man can!
.
Land of freedom, so many folk claim!
Immigrants, “My Country,” in freedoms name!
.
So freedom in Christ we may also seek!
Everland, heaven, just for the meek.
.
Meek shall inherit what? Forever life!
Heavenly Home! Free from all sins strife.
.
A Continental Congress for all who come!
Home in heaven, if you truly seek one!
.
“Seek Me, you will find Me…” Truly God’s Word!
No sweeter promise ever made! That I have heard!
.
