Now while they (the Philistines) were full of drink and in high spirits, they shouted "Bring out Samson to entertain us". So they called Samson out of prison and he performed for them (Judges 16:25)

DESCENDANTS OF ASAPH Asaph was the first and chief musician in the early days before the temple was built in Jerusalem. By all accounts (1Chron 16v5) he was a percussionist and drummer and together with Heman and Jeduthun formed the first worship band to accompany the choir in praise and worship of God He wrote a number of psalm lyrics under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit. His lyrics are very down to earth and he likes to say things exactly as they are! 'Descendants of Asaph' follow in his tradition and is a virtual band dedicated to making music and song unto the Lord and presenting His challenge to the world today through parables in music.

Lyrics
SAMSON'S RIDDLE It's nearly over now, I'm standing here alone A shadow of the man I used to be I know my time has come, I sense it drawing near For I hear the final curtain beckoning It's nearly over now, no crowd's farewell applause Awaits me as I tread the boards tonight We'll stage the final act, let each man play his part God grant me strength to summon one last fight In the end I'll do my bit Take my place in history And go like all the others went before Out of the eater came forth food Out of the strong came something sweet Out of the death of the lion came Sweet honey from the honeycomb It's nearly over now, and though my eyes are blind The truth is crystal clear for all to see The riddle of a life that never might have been The answer to life's greatest mystery Give me one more chance I pray For I won't see the light of day To make amends and bring the whole house down What is stronger? Stronger than a lion What is sweeter? to the taste than honey Sweet honey from the honeycomb What is stronger? Than love that conquers sin and death What is sweeter? Sweeter than redeeming grace Sweeter than redeeming grace
