God Does Not Delight in Wars David was a man of war, so he could not build the house of the Lord; Solomon was a prince of peace, so he built God's house and he did not cease. 1. God does not delight in wars; killing, fighting, He abhors; But He loves the hands that share, thinking of the others care. 2. Listen to the God of love, warning us from heav'n above: "All who by the sword survive, by the sword shall surely die. 3. How we cling unto our toys, like they were the source of joys; But true joy will only start when we give with all our heart. 4. When we want real happiness, let us think of how to bless: Do what Mom and Dad command, freely give a helping hand.
