VENGEANCE IS MINE by RICHARD EUGENE BURTON

First Line: VENGEANCE IS MINE, THE LORD DECLARED OF OLD
Last Line: ONLY WHEN BOTH SHALL PUT THEIR VENGEANCE BY.
Subject(s): GOD; GUNS; VENGEANCE;

"VENGEANCE is mine," the Lord declared of old.
"Vengeance is ours," the peoples shrilly cry,
"Since we are of the Lord." Guns will grow cold
Only when both shall put their vengeance by.
