David Hepburn is a retired minister-of-music, choir director, band director, missionary, teacher, and school president, and a fine tenor and trumpeter. His many compositions are a testament to the works of Jesus he has seen in the lives of others and in his own life.

David arranged this famous Sunday School song for SATB choir with optional slide whistle in 1976 for a concert depicting scenes from the Bible.

Only a little boy David,
And only a babbling brook, babbling brook, babbling brook.
Only a little boy David,
And five little stones that he took, stones that he took, stones that he took, stones that he took out of the brook.

One little stone went in the sling, the sling went around and around.
One little stone went in the sling, the sling went around and round.
Round and around and around and around and around and around and around...

One little stone went up
And the giant came tumbling down. (down down down down down...)
