The Wrath of Shammah

The Philistines were closing in And Israel was in retreat But the fearsome Shammah Would not accept defeat Stood his ground in the lentil field And said, if you want it come and get it You'll have to go through me Raised his sword to the sky Let out his battle cry God is for me, who could stand against me One by one the enemy fell As his sword swung mighty and true With the strength of a hundred men He would not give up his land Stood his ground in the lentil field And said, if you want it come and get it You'll have to go through me Raised his sword to the sky Let out his battle cry God is for me, who could stand against me Like a lion chasing his prey The wrath of Shammah would not be turned away The Philistines had picked the wrong fight Slaughtered in the lentil field On this day blood will be spilled Come and get it, die upon my blade Stood his ground in the lentil field And said, if you want it come and get it You'll have to go through me Slaughtered in the lentil field God is for me, who could stand against me
