Have you heard about Social Security?
They want to raise the retirement age,
The government is up to more antics,
So with good reason it’s causing rage.
But I am feeling compelled to warn you,
Please don’t dare to accept their spin,
Because by pushing the age up to 70,
So many fewer people will ever cash in.
They say folks live longer and healthier,
Thus raising the age limit is fair to do,
But I refuse to accept their deception,
And if you’re smart you won’t do it too.
Now what they will just never tell you,
Is that many folks never see a dime,
If you are wondering how this can be,
Well, they die before retirement time.
Their whole life they paid the system,
Hoping they’d hit the age of sixty-five,
But never once did it occur to them,
That they might not even still be alive.
So do you understand my main point,
Why raising the age is such a ruse?
Even fewer will ever see their check,
Yet paying taxes we just can’t refuse.
So millions now contribute into FICA,
Believing some day they’ll get it back,
But those pols want to make it harder,
Maybe we should give them all flack.
They claim SS is almost out of money,
Yet our gov sends billions to Ukraine,
Why do they help so many foreigners,
While Americans feel financial pain?
The Bible’s clear regarding the issue,
One’s own family should come first,
So stop financing those other nations,
And maybe the SS dam won’t burst.
Saul of Tarsus was called directly by the Lord to be an Apostle on the road to Damascus.
“Then Paul and Barnabas waxed bold, and said, It was necessary that the word of God should first have been spoken to you: but seeing ye put it from you, and judge yourselves unworthy of everlasting life, LO, WE TURN TO THE GENTILES.

How much do we believe in forgiveness,
It is a question we each need to ask,
Aren’t you tired of feeling condemned?
So then bring that old Devil to task.
We have all committed so many sins,
And done things of which we’re ashamed,
But you see sly Satan knows this too,
That’s how he tries to keep us framed.
He’s just like a prosecuting attorney,
He constantly throws things in our face,
So he’ll lie and attempt to deceive us,
Saying in God’s Kingdom we have no place.
All our sins are too great he will claim,
God cannot forgive such an one as us,
Don’t you dare listen to all of his lies,
Because he will throw you under the bus.
Yes, it’s true we’ve all missed the mark,
But God has certainly not left us alone,
That is why He sent His only Son Jesus,
Who for our sins was willing to atone.
Now in Heaven we have a Defense Attorney,
Our cause is pled before the great Judge,
So when that serpent comes to hound you,
There’s really no need for you to budge.
Just hold on tight to our Savior Jesus,
Claiming God’s forgiveness thru the Lamb,
And should Satan try to ever condemn you,
Well, just tell that wicked liar to scram.
