The Pacifist Said Poem by Randy McClave

The pacifist once said, you can kill me dead
But, I still don't want a gun,
You can come into my house, threaten me and my spouse
And from you we will not cower or run.
My faith and belief is in God,
Not in a weapon, or in hate, or in a rod.

The pacifist said I am a Christian, if you'll listen
I need no weapon ever at my side,
God is always there, he listens to every prayer
From me, he will never hide.
So, my faith and protection is always in him,
Unto no weapon do I praise or ever sing a hymn.

You can kill me with a sword, my faith is in the lord
With any weapon you can take my life,
You can come in my home, I'm under God's dome
So, you won't give me worries or strife.
You can give me death with a sword, knife or gun,
And when you do, I'll then be worshipping the son.
