“David bought up the ark of God with gladness….”  (2 Sam.6:12)
“Michal … despised him in her heart.”  (2  Sam. 6:16)


The gladness of a happy throng
poor Michal did despise,
the dancing and king David’ s song
she thought deserved no prize!

Why did she from her window frown?
For lo, the ark was there!
While they the King of kings did crown,
their joy she did not share!

When God does wonders in our midst,
we truly should rejoice,
as in the past you humbly didst
with an anointed voice!

Some critics, though, with Michal side,
because their hearts are wrong,
they at their window curtain hide
away from David’ s throng!

O, for the Spirit’ s move we long,
on Christ we want to feast,
and thus we join the singing throng
in our hearts at least!
