David got Uriah the killed, He planned to hide his sins, King would have been exposed, So Uriah must not live.
Reward of service unwavering, Uriah paid with his life, Oh what a cruel reward,David, you robbed him of his life.
Injustice of David, Couldn't escape the Lord's eyes, David had to live in trouble, After this incident of his life.
Uriah must have failed to understand, Why did they leave him in the enemy's hands? King had adultery to cover, So Uriah had to be sacrificed.
David had adultery to cover, But why did you kill me? What did you ultimately gain? Searching for answers in vain.
You killed my reputation, You killed me for sure, Maybe you wanted some drama, So you tarnished my reputation to the core.
A poem by R. A. Jacob
Note:- King David committed adultery with a woman named Bathsheba who consequently became pregnant. Upon learning of Bathsheba's condition, David tried to cover his sin and eventually arranged for Bathsheba's husband, Uriah, to be killed in battle.
