God Sees The Heart (1 Samuel 16)

[Verse 1] King Saul's reign was in decline, God needed the next king in line, So he sent Samuel "Please go And hold some kind of casting show." [Verse 2] As if on a catwalk, strong and high, Isai lets his sons pass by. One by one they tried to shine, Hoping to be next in line. [Chorus] But God sees the heart, Not the outward part. This is not the one. Bring another son! [Verse 3] One son showed his strength, Another his great body length.. Jesse boasts like a market crier: "All my boys are here for hire." [Verse 4] The next one thinks he is very smart, But not a man of God's own heart. Another puts on a big show; God shakes his head and says "oh no". [Chorus] For God sees the heart, Not the outward part. God disagrees, So next son please! [Verse 5] "No more sons in the stock?" "Only David, who tends the flock." "Bring him here, he is the one." The winner is the youngest son. [Bridge] A shepherd boy so full of grace, Not even in the running race. Unseen by eyes, but not by heart; He was chosen from the start. [Chorus] For God sees the heart, Not the outward part. This is the King. The real thing! And now back to the sheep, David!
