Can you add your own stanza?
I was not intent on rhyming, just trying to express the thoughts....maybe you can do better.
The New Believer
Every three seconds a believer is born
Parents believe they know
Within a year the new believer is sworn
May god bless and adore
A new name entered on the Holy page
Along with prior family names
All believers from early start
When they are told you must beleive God loves
Because ‘God’s son told me so’
From that point on believers go
When told to pray
When told to say
God love’s me just because
When it’s time to read the newly bound
Finds the stories that confirm
Noah’s animals are fun
Daniel prayed and the lions yawned
Heaven is the place to be
Jesus was a child
Santa proves the story true
The rest of life is an easy test
Belief is all one needs to leave the nest
Even when the new believer is gray
His heart was won from the early day
Without a base or even a trace
of doubt
'Because Jesus tells me so'
Never really knowing why
A believer nonetheless
Who can fault
A new believer is born every 3 seconds
Every 3 seconds of every day
@skepsis....I don't mind your arrogant critique, but you offered nothing.....so who really is the 'fool' you so very much dispise?
