DAVID LOWLY SHEPHERD
Came that lowly shepherd
To the war that day
He came unto the battle
He came to sling and play
That the Jewish people
And their God be dethroned
It gave him righteous anger
And chilled him to the bone
So what he was a giant
Goliath being his name
There wasn't man or beast alive
But that his God could tame
Mocking, big man, standing tall
Fitted to the ten
Bold as brass, shielded with armor
Would soon come to his end
Big mouthed Philistine babbler
Boasting in his strength
Was soon to meet his Maker
And find his end at length
Heart as hard as stone
Braggard that he be
Demeaning to the people of God
The lowly shepherd did see.
Send you out this little lad
To fight for you this day
Don't make me laugh, The giant said,
"Your army will flee away."
But what he didn't realize
This was a God sent man
He'd been practicing with his sling
Time and time again.
Few small stones in his hand
The giants doom was sealed
With markmanship that God had planned
Isreal would be healed.
No weapon formed against it shall prosper
God has sealed it with His blood
Think ye giants will win the battle
Well, think again - our God has stood!
He stands and laughs at punyness
Brings the big man to his knees
Sends his head a rolling yonder
Stand up and applaud the King indeed.
High fives all around
For David got his man
Awesome is our God above
Lets give Him another hand.
