THE STORY OF DAVID AND GOLIATH
SURELY HIS FAITH THE LORD GOD DID TRIETH,
WHEN HE CALLED UNTO DAVID TO FIGHT GOLIATH.
DAVID WAS A BOY A CHILD AT BEST,
WHEN THE LORD GOD DID TRULY GIVE HIM A TEST.
HE COULD HAVE REBELLED BUT CHOSE TO OBEY,
AND ALONG WITH HIS SLING AND WITH 5 SMOOTH STONES
THE GIANT HE SLAYED.
