As I was watching the news last night, for some reason or other I had to think of the people praying in the church in Sutherland Springs. They said their prayers, but at the same time, it crossed my mind that the perpetrator also must have been a Christian. Then the 'Our Father' came to my mind. How deranged can you be to shoot while others are praying? What might have gone through a deranged mind? Could these have been his horrible delusional thoughts?
(Needless to say that my thoughts are with the victims and their families!)
Always Say A Prayer
(based upon the Our Father version from Matthew 6:9–6:13)
Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name.
So ‘Bang’ ‘Bang’
From the gun of the deranged
Who are convinced that this way
Your Kingdom come.
For their ‘Bang’ ‘Bang’
Assures them that Your will be done.
‘Bang’ ‘Bang’ on earth,
as it is in Heaven.
‘Bang’ ‘Bang’
Not even the time to put your hands up in the air.
Because, we are the deranged.
‘Bang’ ‘Bang’ gives us this day our daily bread.
As we go out with a bang,
Our last bang is for You.
So You will forgive us our debts,
And along the way we fail as
We also should have forgiven our debtors.
We rather say ‘Bang’ ‘Bang’!
As to avoid that you bring us to the time of trial,
Because as the deranged,
We are beyond rescue from the evil one.
That is why we rather go:
‘Bang’ ‘Bang’
