TEARS IN A BOTTLE COLLECTION
Caryl Ramsdale, American Poet
And she said, I will surely go with thee: notwithstanding the journey that thou takest shall not be for thine honor; for the LORD shall sell Sis'-e-ra into the hand of a woman. And Deb'-o-rah arose, and went with Bar'-ak to Ke'-desh. JUDGES 4:9 JKV

CLAIM THE VICTORY
to Jeannie Hults

Nine hundred iron chariots
The cruel King Jabin called his own;
Fearful people cried twenty years,
God help us,they'd whimper and moan.
In tall mountains 'neath a palm tree
Sat Deborah the prophetess;
As a woman judge she'd hear and
Solve people problems with finesse.
Strong faith, obedience and trust
Caused her to be larger than life;
The Lord saw her as a warrior,
This heroine was someone's wife.
Deborah rose to leadership when
God sent His fight back command;
Ten thousand men gathered to win,
Heard her new voice throughout the land.
So men that were not fighting men--
Called to arms--fought the kings trained men;
Barak led them into battle,
God handed Israel the win.
They threw off the yoke of bondage
And all the people were set free;
When the Lord cleared the way and let
A woman claim the victory.
