WRONG CHALLENGE

David killed a bear

And the lion didn’t go free

Experience had taught him that

A dead ant and a dead lion are the same

Then came a man, a mortal man

Who stood head high

And challenged the God that Israel served

He challenged the God that made him

Not knowing that he was

Fearfully and wonderfully made

He challenged his right to live

And he lost it

If only he hadn’t

Perhaps the bear killer wouldn’t

Have let him die disgracefully

With his boast still on his lips

He shouldn’t have but he did, so he died

You shouldn’t, so don’t and you will live

 

Jer 49:16 “Thy terribleness hath lifted thee up, The pride of thy heart, O dweller in clefts of the rock, Holding the high place of the height, For thou makest high as an eagle thy nest, From thence I bring thee down, An affirmation of Jehovah..” (YLT)
