THE MEASURE OF A MAN
|
|
This world can analyze and size you up
|
And throw you on the scales
|
They can IQ you and run you thorugh
|
Their rigorous details
|
They can do their best to rate
|
And they'll place you on their charts
|
And then back it up with scientific smarts
|
|
But there's more to what you're worth
|
Than what their human eyes can see
|
|
CHORUS
|
Oh I say the measure of a man
|
Is not how tall you stand
|
How wealthy or intelligent you are
|
'Cause I found out the measure of a man
|
God knows and understand
|
For He looks inside to the bottom of your heart
|
And what's in the heart defines
|
The measure of a man
|
|
Well you can doubt your worth
|
And search for who you are and where you stand
|
But God made you in His image
|
When He formed you in His hands
|
And He looks at you with mercy
|
And He sees you through His love
|
You're His child and that will always be enough
|
|
For there's more to what your worth
|
Than you could ever comprehend
|
|
REPEAT CHORUS
|
|
BRIDGE
|
You can spend your life persuing physical perfection
|
But there's so much more than ever meets the eye
|
For God looks through the surface
|
And he defines your worth by what is on the inside
|
|
REPEAT CHORUS
|
