sling and stone

So David prevailed over the Philistine with a sling and with a stone, and struck the Philistine and killed him. There was no sword in the hand of David.
1 Samuel 17:50

With a sling and a stone
the weapon of a shepherd boy
God delivered His people
continuing redemption's story

With a sling and a stone
David ran near
to the giant who mocked
fighting with faith, not fear

With a sling and a stone
David faced an enemy
without even a sword
or a strong army

With a sling and a stone
God's deliverance was done
as David felled Goliath
the victory was won

With a sling and a stone
and a faith undeterred
David fought for Israel
and heeded God's Word

With a sling and a stone
in my own life
unpleasant circumstances
need not cause me strife

With a sling and a stone
and the power of God here
I can trust God to work
and always be near
