ISRAELITE WOMEN
Saul has slain his thousands and David his ten thousands
One has been our daylight
And one the very sun
Saul has slain his thousands
And David his ten thousands
One has been our daylight
And one the very sun

Saul has slain his thousands and David his ten thousands
One who has served his people well
Whose race is almost run
Saul has slain his thousands and David his ten thousands
One who's made us realize
No battle no prize cannot be won

JOAB
In normal times a soldier king would gladly take on board
His people's talk of thousands who have fallen to his sword
But it's not so amusing when
They praise someone younger, then
Multiply their praise by ten
It's getting hard at court
To know whom to support

ENSEMBLE
Saul has slain his thousands and David his ten thousands
Philistines are scattered
A spent and broken crew
Saul has slain his thousands and David his ten thousands
Sing as the corpse of proud Goliath
Molders in its stew
Saul has slain his thousands and David his ten thousands
Widely are their stories told
But one story's old
The other's new
Saul has slain his thousands and David his ten thousands
One has been our daylight
And one the very sun
Saul has slain his thousands and David his ten thousands
One who has served his people well
Whose race is almost run
Saul has slain his thousands and David his ten thousands
One who's made us realize
No battle no prize cannot be won
Saul has slain his thousands...
David his ten thousands...
One who's made us realize
No battle no prize cannot be won
