When First My Soul Enlisted

Author: John Newton Hymnal: Hymns and Devotions for Daily Worship #205 (2024) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Lyrics: 1. When first my soul enlisted, My Savior's foes to fight, Mistaken friends insisted, I was not armed aright: So Saul advised young David He certainly would fail, Nor could his life be saved, Without a coat of mail. 2. But David, though he yielded To put the armor on, Soon found he could not wield it And ventured forth with none. With only sling and pebble, He fought the fight of faith; The weapon seemed but feeble, Yet proved Goliah's death. 3. Had I by him been guided, And quickly thrown away The armor friends provided, I might have gain'd the day; But armed as they advised me, My expectations failed; The enemy surprised me And had almost prevailed. 4. Satan will not be shaken By such a worm as I; Then let me learn with David To trust in the Most High; To plead the name of Jesus, And use the sling of prayer; Thus armed, when Satan sees us, He'll tremble and despair.
