The Philistines had a giant, a mountain of a man,
His towering height six cubits and a span.
He defied the armies of God that day,
“Who’ll come and face me?” They heard him say.
None there could face him, they all just knew,
But God had provided him a champion true.
He was but a youth, and his face was ruddy,
But he was ready for the battle, no matter how bloody.
“Take my armor,” said Saul, “Go to battle with it.”
But the champion looked and knew it wouldn’t fit.
“I have no need of these,” said he,
“For the God of Israel fights with me.”
With his sling and five stones, the giant he faced,
While in front of their foes, the Israelites lost face.
He trusted in God for his aim to be true,
And that day, for God’s glory, Goliath David slew.
Ev’ry good story has a moral, they say,
I believe this one is “Trust God today.”
If God made sure David’s aim was true,
Imagine what He could do with you.
With a sling and a stone, a giant he slew
What God did with David, He can do with you.
