My own personal story of how the good book saved me.
Anyone that ever needs a few good lines
I suggest you keep the good book close at all times
To it there is no rival when you’re looking for survival
That’s why I never go anywhere without my bible
I was in the grocery store one warm summer night
Grabbing some chips and Oreo’s for a real quick bite
It was a rather boring evening up until what would happen
When the bible I had beside me would be called into action
The door burst open with a man in a mask with a gun
Waving it wildly at the clerk, who was too scared to run
He said, “Give me all the money and nobody gets hurt!”
So the clerk started to empty all the cash in a spurt
The burglar turned to me quickly, with a threatening frown
And said, “You want to get shot?! Get your a** on the ground!”
I meant to drop down that instant, but in all of my rush
I knocked some snacks from a shelf, which toppled down with a crunch
The next thing I realized, the robber slipped on a bag
He toppled down to the ground, scraping his hand that he dragged
He groaned out as the clerk let a terrified screech
The gun held in the crooks hand slid just right out of his reach
The burglar look up at the gun, tried to stretch to retrieve
I jumped to action, to make sure there was not effort to leave
I leapt atop of the man, I kicked the gun from his trace
Grabbed my bible and brought it swiftly to the side of his face
The man was flabbergasted that I’d chose a weapon so odd
As I continued to pummel him with the words of my God
Left and right I sent his face with the scriptures and psalms
Bringing the power of the Lord to the spot in my palm
There was no chorus there to sing it, nor a preacher totell him
But I still got throught how much the word of God had compelled him
When I was sure he was knocked out, I arose from my stance
Looked at the clerk, who stood bewildered, stood there, put in a trance
I put the word of the Lord back to my back pack side pocket
Zipped it up half way but not all the way, no reason to lock it
And I strolled back to the counter and I paid for my candy
Saying, “You might want one for yourself. Those things come in handy!”
