In God We Trust?

Lyrics

"In God We Trust" on every bill and coin
A nation's creed, our founders did enjoin
On state halls etched, a reminder clear
Of faith that once we held so dear
In every sphere of life, they say
All people should this truth convey

But what if these are hollow words?
Our faith in God, a song unheard
Like ancient signs on doorposts placed
God's truth unseen, His love untraced

God yearns to write His holy law
Not on cold stone, but something more
Upon the hearts of you and me
Each soul set free, His face to see
To bow before Him, seek His ways
Know Him in truth, not just in praise
Faithful in deed, not just in word
Our lives proclaim His message heard

This phrase once made our nation strong
God-fearing folk, where we belong
But if His laws we now forsake
For human rules, our faith will break
Though words are written everywhere
They're false before His righteous stare

But what if these are hollow words?
Our faith in God, a song unheard
Like ancient signs on doorposts placed
God's truth unseen, His love untraced

God yearns to write His holy law
Not on cold stone, but something more
Upon the hearts of you and me
Each soul set free, His face to see
To bow before Him, seek His ways
Know Him in truth, not just in praise
Faithful in deed, not just in word
Our lives proclaim His message heard

Take out a dollar, read the line
Our founders knew faith's true design
Give God your heart this very day
Let Him within His statutes lay
So in your life, His truth will shine

But what if these are hollow words?
Our faith in God, a song unheard
Like ancient signs on doorposts placed
God's truth unseen, His love untraced

God yearns to write His holy law
Not on cold stone, but something more
Upon the hearts of you and me
Each soul set free, His face to see
To bow before Him, seek His ways
Know Him in truth, not just in praise
Faithful in deed, not just in word
Our lives proclaim His message heard

So you can say, "In God I trust"
And know it's true, not gathering dust
