Bow Hunter's Prayer by Timothy D Cook

Clean Kill or No Kill, Lord

O Lord, I am a hunter

And life I seek to take

But let me not attempt the shot

Beyond my skill to make

For Lord they are your creatures

Given for our use

But each one falls within your sight

They're not for our abuse

And when I loose my arrow

Please guide it swift and true

Or let it miss completely, Lord

That pain be not undue

A clean kill or no kill, Lord

Such is my heart's desire

Give me the skill to make it so

Or let me hold my fire

And when my time upon this earth

The days they are fulfilled

Grant that I may die at least

As clean as those I killed

Pretty Good, but a little long. I prefer my go-to-prayer:

Oh God Oh God Let one walk by

I'll make venison steaks or venison pie

If you send one my way, I'll handle the rest

Shooting straight, shooting true, I'll shoot it right in the chest

With my muzzies and Fred Bear, my equipment complete

Let one walk by, Lord - a man's got to eat.
