Mary Had a Little Lamb

I picked this up in a restaurant in Myrtle Beach, SC and thought I’d like to share it. You may (and should) share as well. Unless, of course, you find fault with it, then delete it from your mind.

Mary had a little Lamb; His fleece was white as snow.
And everywhere Mary went the Lamb was sure to go.
He followed her to school each day. Twasn’t even the rule
To have the Lamb at school.
He made the children laugh and play
But then the rules changed one day.
Illegal it became to bring the Lamb of God to school
Or even speak His name
Everyday got worse and worse, and days turned into years
Instead of hearing children laugh, we hear guns shots, drugs, and tears.
What must we do to stop the crime that’s in our schools today?
Let’s bring the Lamb of God back to school
And teach our children how to pray.
