Why People Go to Church. Some people go to church forsooth It was a habit formed in youth Some go because they like to hear The preacher rake their neighbors dear Some go to show their dress and s'are | At what the other people wear, j Some go because they are afraid | To not do so might injure trade | Some go because they think it squares The week day shady sin affairs Some go to take a quiet snooze While sitting in the restful pews Lulled by a soporific talk i As gentle as a cradle’s rock. Some go. they really do not know Just why; they simply dress and SO. Some young men go because the fair Girls they like so well are there And yet among the chaff we find Much golden gram of human kind Good Christian men and women who To holy things are ever true. Bright flowers that spring from sinful sod Who really go to worship God But oh, the millions on this ball Of earth who never go at all. ANONYMOUS.
