I wrote this song with the idea of what God might say to America...2 separate fans emailed me to say that this was just about the best song they had ever heard. Too bad, it's basically non commercial. However, it was #1 on the charts for bluegrass in Canada on N1M radio for several weeks.

America, You Reap What You Sow
You were the home of the strong and the brave and the free
And that’s the way God wanted it to be.
But you’ve turned from God to your evil ways.
It had to catch up with you someday.
Amer-i-ca. You reap what you sow.
Amer-i-ca. There’s a God, don’t you know?
All those kids on the streets without Daddies,
Taking drugs and living violent TV.
And the ones that were and never will be,
God formed in the womb and you will see.
Amer-i-ca. You reap what you sow.
Amer-i-ca. There’s a God, don’t you know?
Instrumental Interlude
When you tamper with God’s covenant Jews.
Dividing Israel is trouble for you.
The bible says you’re poking God’s eye.
If you wanna be blessed, do think that’s wise?
Amer-i-ca. You reap what you sow.
Amer-i-ca. There’s a God, don’t you know?
Bridge:
If you turn back to God, Humble yourselves in prayer.
God will forgive and He will heal this land.
(Bridge overlaps chorus)
Amer-i-ca. You reap what you sow.
Amer-i-ca. There’s a God, don’t you know?
Amer-i-ca. You reap what you sow.
Amer-i-ca. There IS a God, you know.
