“Five Stones” (David & Goliath)
[Verse 1]
Down in the valley where shadows grow long
A giant stood laughing, his voice like a song
Forty days taunting the armies of God
Till a shepherd boy came with a sling and a rod
[Chorus]
Five stones in the water, one heart in the fight
The Lord is my armor, the Lord is my might
Steel may be sharper, the spear may be wide
But who can stand when the Lord’s on my side?
[Verse 2]
Goliath roared loud, “Send me a man”
But the boy only smiled with a sling in his hand
“You come with a sword, I come in His name
And today He will put all your boasting to shame”
[Chorus]
Five stones in the water, one heart in the fight
The Lord is my armor, the Lord is my might
Steel may be sharper, the spear may be wide
But who can stand when the Lord’s on my side?
[Bridge]
The stone took flight, the ground shook deep
The giant fell hard, like a tree in sleep
And the valley rang out with the victory cry
For the Lord had answered from the sky
[Final Chorus]
Five stones in the water, one heart in the fight
The Lord is my armor, the Lord is my might
Steel may be sharper, the spear may be wide
But who can stand when the Lord’s on my side?
[Outro]
Down in the valley where shadows grow long
A shepherd boy walked, and the giant was gone
