Music Idea
[I know we need to spice up the music part and it is hard to find appropriate songs. I woke up at 5:30 this morning with this in my head and I scrambled for a pen and paper! Hope you like it. It teaches and it is fun to do. -- Judy]
The tune is an old mountain answering song---"There's a hole in my bucket, dear Liza, dear Liza."
There's a giant a comin'
O David O David
There's a giant a comin'
O David A GIANT!
Well, fight him, you soldiers!
You soldiers You soldiers
Well, fight him, you soldiers!
You soldiers FIGHT HIM!
Don't wanna, dear David,
Dear David Dear David
Don't wanna, dear David,
Dear David WE'RE SCARED!
Then I'll do it, said David
Said David Said David
Then I'll do it, said David
Said David I'LL FIGHT!
You're too little, said the soldiers
the soldiers the soldiers
You're too little! Said the soldiers
WAY TOO LITTLE!
God will help me, shouted David
Shouted David Shouted David
God will help me, shouted David
HE WILL HELP!
Oh dear, said the soldiers
Said the soldiers Said the soldiers
Oh dear, said the soldiers
Said the soldiers HE WILL LOSE!
Come fight me, yelled Goliath
Yelled Goliath Yelled Goliath
Come fight me, yelled Goliath
FIGHT ME!
Load my slingshot, murmured David
Murmured David Murmured David
Load my slingshot Murmured David
Load my slingshot RIGHT NOW!
You're just a baby, shouted Goliath
Shouted Goliath Shouted Goliath
Just a baby Shouted Goliath
A LITTLE BOY! (NO WHISKERS---NOT EVEN ONE!)
The Lord'll help me, answered David
Answered David Answered David
The Lord'll help me, Answered David
HE WILL! (YOU'LL SEE----JUST WATCH!)
So David shot him with a small stone
With a small stone With a small stone
So David shot him with a small stone
With a small stone Right here!
And Goliath fell over with a big thump
With a big thump With a big thump
And Goliath fell over With a big thump
CLOSE YOUR EARS!
God helped David win the battle
Win the battle Win the battle
God helped David Win the battle
AND HE'LL HELP US TOO! HOORAY,,,,,HOORAY,,,,HOORAY!
