Key: G

Verse I:

                   G⁷

They were stalled in the desert with a giant facing them

                   C⁷                                                   G⁷

They were sure to loose the battle; there was no way they could win

          D⁷                                                C⁷

Then along came little David with five stones and a sling

      A⁷                                           D⁷

He said, “Step aside, boys,” and he began to sing:

Chorus:

         G⁷

Take five smooth stones, and let God do the rest

         C⁷

Take five smooth stones, and let God do the rest

D⁷                                      C⁷

Don’t be afraid of that ol’ giant in your way

          G⁷                                   D⁷

Take five smooth stones, and let God do the rest

Verse II:

       G⁷

The story’s so familiar; I’ve heard it all my life

         C⁷

How David killed the giant that faced those Israelites

       D⁷                                    C⁷

But in it there’s a message I just can not ignore

      A⁷                                               D⁷

Of how he faced the battle with the Spirit of the Lord

Verse III:

                G⁷

But your stone could be a sermon; your stone could be a song

      C⁷                                               G⁷

Or maybe just a Scripture from the precious Word of God

             D⁷                            C⁷

It could be a testimony or a prayer in the night

        A⁷                                               D⁷

Just leave it to the Lord and He will help you fight your fight

Bridge:

          G⁷                                      F

Your giant may be a sickness or trouble in your home

          E^b                                           D

Your giant may be a weakness you cannot overcome
