Oh Delilah

Oh Delilah, i wonder what happened to you But i know what you did.. You naughty girl Oh Samson, so strong and handsome So famous and feared From a prostitute to a woman in the valley of Sorek Am so sure you could have easily found a Godly woman to continue your name But maybe you had little Samsons elsewhere Everywhere, unknowns or secrets Who knows You never know Oh Delilah so alluring So determined So money hungry Materialistic woman playing her cards right A beauty to Samson's eyes A curse to Samson's powers Samson, a story of God's strength Samson, a story of God's forgiveness For God hears our prayers no matter the weight of our sins We just have to repent and ask
