The Strength of Samson

https://m.soundcloud.com/user-921599710/the-strength-of-samson The children of Israel, standing tall Jericho and conquests beyond the fall Possessing Canaan, equipped to defend Tribes of twelve, of which they descend From Joshua’s death to the Promised Land False gods worshipped at every command Returning to evil ways unpleasantly God promised judges to bring victory Israelites oppressed, Philistines of power The appearing of an angel in a timely hour The bearing of a son, promised to occur Delivery from Philistines, was told to her A chance of hope, not rendered forlorn Unto mother and father Samson was born A roaring lion of enemy plans Samson seized the strength of his hands Written by Geraldine Taylor ©
