After My Own Heart Lyrics

The Lord said unto Samuel do not mourn for Saul

Let it be known I have rejected him

I have looked upon his heart and he is not the one

So now I will provide for Me a king

Fill your horn with oil and unto Jesse go

Ask him of his youngest that he bring

He was fair to look to and ruddy of complexion

The Lord said arise for this is he

I have found a man for Me after My own Heart

Take him and anoint Him to be king

The shepherd boy of Israel, keeper of the sheep

I will make My covenant with him

To be the king

The enemy had come to set the battle in array

Two mountains with a valley in between

The shepherd boy of faith said I will go and fight the foe

The fiercest that the world had ever seen

I killed a lion and a bear with nothing but my hands

Goliath I will slay as one of them

He flung a stone and took him down and then cut off his head

The champion of Philistines was dead

I have found a man for Me after My own Heart

David My anointed will be king

The captain over Israel will fulfil My will

And I will keep My covenant with him

He will be the king

The day of retribution when Saul was in the cave

The son of Jesse waiting with his sword

His godly heart was smitten just as he cut the robe

I will not touch anointed of the Lord

You were hunting for my soul, I could have had your life

Instead I chose to humbly let you live

I sought myself no vengeance and no evil have I done

The Lord be the judge between me and thee

I have found a man for Me after My own heart

David My anointed is the king

Humility and wisdom with the Law of God to reign

After My own heart he is for Me

And I have found a man for Me after My own heart

The promised Son of David will be king

At His revelation the Messiah takes the throne

The covenant of peace will be with Him

With My King

With My King

With My King
