Need Not A Gun

I don't have or own a gun Because, I don't need or want one, I'm not a soldier or in a war And you screaming that I need one, I will ignore. I don't need one to kill my food to eat There's a grocery store just down the street, I look not for violence I pray to God for peace And I don't need a gun, because we have the police. This isn't the old wild Wild West And Im not going on a cattle drive or a quest, Outside my window there is no savages preparing to attack And I won't find an arrow in my back. I don't need to prove to anyone that I'm a man That of course would not be my plan, I'm not a bully and especially not a coward By the NRA's beliefs I have not been devoured. I'm not afraid of any stranger Around them I feel no fear or danger, I need no gun constantly at my side And I definitely don't need one for my pride. Jesus our Lord and creator had once said From within the Bible I have constantly read, And it also pertains to guns which all will admit Those who live by the sword will die by it. Randy L. McClave
