<div class="lyrics">
<p>By whom was David taught<br>
To aim the deadly blow,<br>
When he Goliath fought,<br>
And laid the Gittite low?<br>
Nor sword nor spear the stripling took,<br>
But chose a pebble from the brook.</p>
<p>&#8217;Twas Israel&#8217;s God and King<br>
Who sent him to the fight;<br>
Who gave him strength to fling,<br>
And skill to aim aright.<br>
Ye feeble saints, your strength endures,<br>
Because young David&#8217;s God is yours.</p>
<p>Who ordered Gideon forth,<br>
To storm th&#8217;invaders&#8217; camp<br>
With arms of little worth,<br>
A pitcher and a lamp?<br>
The trumpets made His coming known<br>
And all the host was overthrown.</p>
<p>Oh! I have seen the day,<br>
When with a single word,<br>
God helping me to say,<br>
&#8220;My trust is in the Lord,&#8221;<br>
My soul hath quelled a thousand foes<br>
Fearless of all that could oppose.</p>
<p>But unbelief, self will,<br>
Self righteousness, and pride,<br>
How often do they steal<br>
My weapon from my side!<br>
Yet David&#8217;s Lord, and Gideon&#8217;s Friend,<br>
Will help His servant to the end.</p>
