[Intro]
Yeah
They saw a shepherd
God saw a king
⸻
[Verse 1]
Out in the pasture where nobody claps
No spotlight shining, just sheep and traps
Dust on his sandals, harp in his hand
Learning the rhythm of Heaven’s command
1 Samuel sixteen — oil on his head
While his own bloodline doubted instead
He wasn’t built like the rest of the crew
But Heaven said, “I’m choosing you.”
Lion came close — laid it down
Bear stood tall — hit the ground
Private battles nobody praised
God builds warriors hidden away
⸻
[Hook]
Give me a heart like David
Fearless and faithful, unshaken
When giants rise I won’t run
I stand in the Name of the Holy One
No crown, no fame, just fire inside
Chosen by God, not human pride
If He said it, I believe it
Give me a heart like David
⸻
[Verse 2]
Valley shaking, Goliath roars
Israel’s army backs from the war
Six cubits tall with bronze and blade
But David walked in unafraid
1 Samuel seventeen, hear him speak
“You come with weapons — my God’s who you meet.”
Five smooth stones but it took just one
Faith released and the battle was done
Not by might, not by size
But trust in the Lord of the skies
One swing, one strike, giant fell
Let that echo through every cell
⸻
Hook
⸻
[Verse 3]
Years in caves with a promise delayed
Saul still hunting but David prayed
Twice he could’ve taken the throne
But he wouldn’t claim what wasn’t his own
Then came failure, the hidden sin
A king still human deep within
But Psalm 51 cried from the floor
“Lord make me clean, I want You more.”
Not perfect living, but quick to repent
That’s why Heaven said he was heaven-sent
A man after God though he stumbled hard
Mercy greater than every scar
⸻
[Outro Hook – Bigger]
Give me a heart like David
Worship loud when the night gets faded
From the field to the throne You raise it
All for the glory of Jesus
