Such a powerful vibe – I’m hooked instantly

Religion ain't my thing but I can appreciate the effort 👊

I have always loved the story of King David, from killing Goliath to his accension to King. All the good things and the bad....


[Verse 1]  
Out in the hills with a sling in my hand  
Tending the sheep at the Lord’s command  
Thunder would roll, and the lion would roar  
But I sang to the Lord and feared no more  

[Verse 2]  
Samuel came with oil and flame  
He said, “The Lord has called your name”  
While brothers stared in disbelief  
I bowed my head in quiet relief  

[Chorus]  
I fall, I rise, I run, I pray  
The Lord’s my rock, my hiding place  
Through every sin and battle scar  
He holds me close, He knows my heart  
The path is dark, the climb is steep  
But grace has hands that never sleep  
Through joy and shame, through sword and song  
To You, O Lord, I still belong  

[Verse 3]  
Faced a giant with stones and a cry  
“You come with sword, but I'm with the Most High”  
The world stood still, the battle won  
But pride would come before too long  

[Verse 4]  
I danced before the ark with joy  
A shepherd king, no longer a boy  
But lust and murder stained my name  
And still, I called upon His name  

[Chorus]  
I fall, I rise, I run, I pray  
The Lord’s my rock, my hiding place  
Through every sin and battle scar  
He holds me close, He knows my heart  
The path is dark, the climb is steep  
But grace has hands that never sleep  
Through joy and shame, through sword and song  
To You, O Lord, I still belong  

[Bridge]  
The child I lost, the tears I shed  
The throne I feared, the blood I bled  
Absalom’s cry tore through my soul  
But mercy wrote my final scroll  

[Verse 5]  
Now gray with years, my hands are weak  
But still Your face is all I seek  
Not in the palace or the praise  
But in the song my spirit plays  

[Final Chorus]  
I fall, I rise, I run, I pray  
The Lord’s my light, my only way  
He lifts me up when I have failed  
His love endures, it never pales  
The battle ends, but not the grace  
I’ll see my Lord, I'll see His face  
Through every wrong, through every psalm  
To You, O Lord, I still belong  


“The Lord is my shepherd… I shall not want.”
