Description: The leviathon from Job 41: God usually shows creation, but rarely does He tell. And He gave Job a good talk about some fantastic creatures of His. At more one time God came down to our level. Isn't this boasting like an inventor, or engineer?

Many genres, Contemporary Christian, Lyrics, instrumentals

I write my own songs ;) I have a very diverse taste in music, from Pop to Classical, including Rock, Folk, Jazz, Country, World Music (Celtic, Romanian), Old Timey Stringband/Bluegrass, and Latin. All these styles are in my Christian Contemporary catagory. I usually write the music first, and then put words to the music. Though I don't sing good enough yet, I though I would put my instrumentals out along with my music. Generally, I think my music/lyrics are getting better, being more skilled now than when I started.

Story behind the song

Job 41 (NCV) inspired me to write about this non-mythical creature.  It is really a dynosaur-dragon, not a crocodile as some commentaries have it.  This song just about wrote itself when I thought about God is bragging on His creation to Job as only God can do.  I put this in the same form as a song such as Jan and Dean song or a Beach Boys song.  Designers like to extoll the virtues of their creations.  It does have a croco-rock style, though.

Lyrics

Leviathan, Mighty King of Beasts

Spot leviathan?
No, it can't be caught.
Touch leviathan?
Oh, you better not!
You won't forget
The intense combat
Your spears bounce off
And you'll make it laugh
You will never fight and come out on top.
Leviathan, mighty king of beasts

There's tremendous strength
In its limbs and frame
And it breathes out smoke
And its breath is flame
Its eyes are red
And its teeth are fierce
Its hides so strong
That you cannot pierce
There was never, ever a beast as proud -
Leviathan, mighty king of beasts

Its got double scales
All along its back
And it's belly's scales
Are as sharp as glass
Its neck's so strong
And its heart's a rock
No earthly thing is gonna make it stop.
In the whole wide world, nothing is more feared.
Leviathan, mighty king of beasts
