Little Shepherd David

Little shepherd David,
The man for whom you’re named
Started out as nothing much
But climbed his way to fame

With a sling and fives stones
Enemies came tumbling down
Nothing accomplished on his own
God handed him the crown

Perfect he was not
Still known for his mistakes
But his story does not stop with sin
It ends with God’s good grace

Though friends came and went
There was One Friend who stayed
When feeling overwhelmed
To the Lord he prayed

Little shepherd David,
If nothing else he knew
Knew that his worth and strength
Were founded in God’s truth

My prayer for you, brother,
Is just like David, king
Who started as a shepherd
‘fore God changed everything

That you would know your God
Like little David did
You’d give him your whole heart
And make your short life His
