Championship Bout
Triumphty Truevity
David* prevailed as champ
over gigantic reign
by the Lord’s might.
Shepherd boy vanquished foe
superpowerfully
trusting God with his faith
to kingship height.
Failury Fitfury
Goliath midst great pride
met death through kid’s sling stone
he belittled.
Humiliating downfall
megabraggadoccio
had no match with Saviour
when embattled.
*1Samuel 17:45 Then said David to the Philistine, Thou comest to me with a sword, and with a spear, and with a shield: but I come to thee in the name of the LORD of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, whom thou hast defied.
