David and Goliath

The Israeli army was facing a giant
The whole philistine army on Goliath was reliant
Send one soldier to face me he was defiant
However no Israeli soldier was compliant 

Then into the camp David came 
He heard the giant's challenge and his fame
He saw the Israelites whimper away in shame
And the Spirit of God did David inflame

How dare this uncircumcised against God roar
David arose willing to wait no more
With a stone in a sling and his bag had four
He released the sling and let the stone soar

The stone struck the giant's forehead 
Goliath fell down for he was dead
David drew the giant's sword and chopped off his head
In terror the philistines screamed and fled

The victory won because on God did David fully trust
And if God is your refuge and strength then victory is a must
All your enemy giants will crumble and fall to the dust
For God is almighty, all knowing, never leaves you and always just
