I could recount of
Gideon and Barak
Who in his time
each had a place of favour
And who each showed
a sign of consecration
That God could use
for temporary salvation
For His own people
in their dire desolation
Yet God's Ideal
they cannot be compared with;
Jephthah and Samson
display the flesh elated:
Although God used
them He found their rashness hateful;
Samuel wisely judged
the chosen nation
But mourned too long
the king God found distasteful:
At last God saw in
His anticipation
A man after His
heart when He found David.
