Samson had Delilah for more than just a day

Scissors she was hiding to steal his strength away

Soldiers took him from her

His eyes could no longer see

Between the pillars, they did bind him

Whispered prayers to those on high

He felt his strength returning

His love for Delilah could not hold the day

With new strength provided

His pushed and pulled on Roman heads

He laid his life down that day…
