.
Now
I sit me
down in school
Where praying is
against the rule.

For this great nation
under God
Finds mention of Him
very odd.

If Scripture now
the class recites
It violates the
Bill of Rights.

Anytime my
head I bow
Becomes a
federal matter now.

The law is specific;
the law is precise.
Praying out loud
is no longer nice.

Praying aloud
in a public hall
Upsets those
who believe in
nothing at all.

In silence alone
we can meditate
And if God should get
the credit-great!

They are bringing
their guns;
I don't dare,
To bring my Bible,
To do so,
might make me liable.

So, now Oh Lord,
this plea I make;
Should I be shot in school,
My soul please take.
Written by a 12 year old girl in Boston.
