No Other Gods (A Poem)

“Thou shalt have no other Gods before me.”
-Exodus 20:3

Mark, you’re not my God (although I)
Give you too much time
Jack, you’re not my God
Your evil’s worse than crime

Jeff, you’re not my God
Not everything’s for sale
John, you’re not my God (but I)
Pray that you prevail!

Tony’s not my God
The standards change and shift
Tim, you’re not my God
(and your phone could use a lift)

Don, you’re not my God
You gave the Left some fears
Joe, you’re not my God (but you)
Will be in my prayers

The God I know is steady (and has more)
Power than all hell
No trust in flesh will save us
They are all lacking still

The enemy’s not hiding
Some freedoms lost and dead
And courage is required for some
Dark days up ahead

So pray and practice vigilance
Like never done before
After all the losses
We know who wins this war”

O Lord, I have trusted in thee, and I will trust in thee forever. I will not put my trust in the arm of flesh.”
-2nd Nephi 4:34
