Episode 4<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Now Father time marches on
\nAnd our story\u2019s nearly all done.
\nSaul\u2019s getting bad.
\nSoon he goes mad.
\nFrom better to worse
\nLike he\u2019s under a curse.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\"07-sword\"Jealous of Dave and his mind\u2019s full of fear.
\nThe Philistine Army, again it draws near.
\nHe\u2019s full a\u2019 dread.
\nIt\u2019s all in his head.
\nHe gets help from a witch who calls up the dead.
\nThe Israelite Army\u2019s all fled.
\nHe\u2019s terrified.
\nCommits suicide.
\nAway from The Lord
\nGutted and gored
\nHe skewers himself on his sword.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n

(As you listen to this thing
\nThere\u2019s a lesson to be had.
\nDon\u2019t start out a king
\nAnd end up as a kebab.)<\/p>\n

The nation sinks into war.
\nBut Dave, he comes to the fore.
\nYeah, The Lord, He makes him the King.
\n(It\u2019s more than a cultural thing<\/em>).<\/p>\n

Now Dave didn\u2019t live no perfect life.
\nHe murdered his friend and ran off with his wife!
\nSo The Lord showed Dave, he deserved to die.
\nHe broke the man, then he opened his eyes.<\/p>\n

\u2018\u2018You\u2019se a visual aid, you ain\u2019t the True King.
\nYou\u2019re just a taster for the Real Thing.
\nHe\u2019s yet to come.
\nHe\u2019s called \u2018My Son.\u2019
\nHe\u2019ll last forever,
\nDefeated\u2014never!\u201d<\/p>\n

Goliath gave a challenge and they all ran away,
\n\u2018Cept Dave,
\nWho was brave.
\nThe Lord gives a challenge, to you\u2019se all today.<\/p>\n

\"08-chooseman\"He says, \u2018Choose me a man, to come out to me.
\nI\u2019ll make you my slave, but then you\u2019ll be free.
\nYeah, choose me a man! And come out to me.
\nI\u2019ll make you my slave but then you\u2019ll be free.
\nTo be the man, I meant you to be,
\nThat man you know, you ought to be.\u2019<\/p>\n

\u2018Will you be like Dave, when things ain\u2019t fine?
\nWill you trust in me an\u2019 put yourself on the line?
\nFor all the times that you bin\u2019 mean–
\nIt don\u2019t matter no more\u2014I\u2019ve wiped the slate clean.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

I\u2019m The Lord, I\u2019m The Fire an\u2019 I am The Son.
\nI\u2019m The Judge an\u2019 The Jury an\u2019 The Hangman in One.
\nBut I\u2019m The Man in the dock an\u2019 I tell yer as well,
\nI am The Man that got sent to hell.
\nGot sent in your place.
\nGot blood on my face.
\nI was a disgrace.
\nI took the rap for murderer Dave.
\nI took your rap, got sent to your grave.
\nBut I blew it wide open with the force a\u2019 my Fire.
\nYeah, I blew it wide open an\u2019 I came out a flyer.<\/p>\n

If you foller me, you\u2019ll go to the wire
\nBut I\u2019ll fill you with Fire.
\nI\u2019ll make you a flyer.
\nYou\u2019ll climb like the Eagle, higher n\u2019 higher.
\nI\u2019ll give your heart, My heart\u2019s desire.<\/p>\n

Will you be that man or will you run away?
\nWill you be that man?\u2014decide today.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
