Joshua
Child from the chosen generation
And God’s judgement on Canaan
Trained by Moses on his mission
He purged the promised land from pagans
King David
The man after God’s heart
He who wears the royal ring
He found Zion in part
And turned it into the city of Kings
Judas Maccabee
A priest, a warrior, but no king
He heard the cries of Zion
When the throne meant nothing
So he led the great rebellion
Hanukkah, till this day remembering
