[Verse 1] Stones in a shepherd’s hand Dust on his feet from the desert sand Every soldier shook in fear But he knew the Lord was near One voice across that field One name One faithful shield He said “You come with sword and spear I come with the Lord right here” [Pre-Chorus] If he could stand when giants roared What am I so frightened for? [Chorus] Like David in the valley I will stand With a shaking heart and steady hands I will lift my eyes I will raise my cry For the Lord of Heaven fights beside me I will take my place upon this line With a battle song and borrowed might I will take my sword Face the fear before me Knowing You are here Like You were with David [Verse 2] Bills on the kitchen table Bad news buzzing through the cable Shadows creeping up my door Feels like I can’t fight no more But You whisper “Child Be strong This is where your faith belongs Grab My word like sharpened steel Step up I’ll be your shield” [Pre-Chorus] If he could run toward the roar I can trust You even more [Chorus] Like David in the valley I will stand With a shaking heart and steady hands I will lift my eyes I will raise my cry For the Lord of Heaven fights beside me I will take my place upon this line With a battle song and borrowed might I will take my sword Face the fear before me Knowing You are here Like You were with David [Bridge] When the giant’s laughing at my hope (hey!) When the stories say I’m much too small I will shout Your name across that field You’re the strength that makes me fall then rise When the armor doesn’t seem to fit When the odds say I should just give in I will grip Your promise like a blade Run into the fight unafraid (unafraid) [Chorus] Like David in the valley I will stand With a shaking heart and steady hands I will lift my eyes I will raise my cry For the Lord of Heaven fights beside me I will take my place upon this line With a battle song and borrowed might I will take my sword Face the fear before me Knowing You are here Like You were with David [Outro] Giants fall Hearts awake Every step in Jesus’ name I will take my sword I will fight this battle Knowing You are here Like You were with David
