The poem, “In Christ, Our Constitution Stands”, is a celebratory ode for Independence Day (July 4, 2025), honoring the U.S. Constitution as a document inspired by biblical principles, with Jesus Christ as the ultimate guide and source of freedom. It portrays the Constitution’s creation as rooted in Scripture’s truth, with its checks, balances, and rights (e.g., speech, arms) reflecting God-given liberties. The poem emphasizes that Jesus, not the Constitution, is the true Guide, ensuring the document remains secondary to Christ. Across four stanzas, it celebrates freedom from tyranny, upholds a Christ-centered vision of liberty, and calls for fidelity to this faith-inspired framework, culminating in praise for Christ’s eternal light as the foundation of America’s hope.
From Holy Scripture’s boundless grace,
A nation’s charter found its place.
In halls where freedom’s hope was sown,
God’s truth inspired the Founders’ tone.
With branches checked, and rights made clear,
The Bible’s call to justice near,
From speech to arms, its laws defend,
The liberties that Christ did send.
No king to chain, no fear to bind,
A covenant for heart and mind.
Its words, though mortal, strive to trace,
The freedom born of Christ’s embrace.
O Jesus Christ, our Guide, our Way,
May we stay true through night and day.
In Constitution’s frame, we see Your light—
Christ first, our freedom’s source and might.
