Jerub-Baal, Midian to defeat
Was told his army he must decrease
He sent away all who in heart did faint
But the numbers were still to large
He was to show even more restraint
And so he cut his forces to the core
A mere three hundred – not one more
And with this tiny band
It was God’s victory that was at hand
We too may face opposition strong
But if you feel alone – you are so wrong
For if the Lord is with you
And takes up the fight
You shall prevail through His might
