church bells

the church bells are ringing

losing their luster

less people singing

rules need a duster

for people do not care

modern times change

tradition beware

believing too fully is "strange"

now, people believe in themselves

individuals too powerful for God

too far one delves

give it all up for earthly plans flawed

the church bells are ringing

losing their luster

for the bible they are flinging

but if it helps themselves, they cluster.
