How to Control Those Boys!

(2 Chron. 33:11f.)

How to control those boys?
Got to put a ring in that nose (11)
Bind ’em with bronze chains
(Manasseh kind of lost his brains!)
Re-established that pagan worship
That King Hezekiah had destroyed; (3)
Worshiped those idols to be buoyed.
So he prayed to the Lord in his distress (12)
Wanted out o’ that nasty mess;
Got all humble as a fellow is wont to do
When the Lord dumps on us that doo-doo.
And the Lord was moved by his entreaty; (13)
Brought him back to that fair city,
And Manasseh knew the Lord was God!
Forsook those idols and the hot bods; (15)
Threw them all outside Jerusalem
Set up an altar to worship Him. (16)
