GENERAL ANTHEMS
Goliath—Joseph Martin. "Goliath was a
mighty man, he stood over ten feet tall.
Goliath was a mighty man, he had a lot of
gall. He laughed at David and David's God,
He made fun of old King Saul. Goliath was a
mighty man, but you should have seen him
fall." The beloved story of David and Goliath
comes to life in this playful offering. The quirky
accompaniment and finger snaps just add to
the fun! A musical story for all ages!

group. Inspiring and memorable!
