Hi I'm new here. I found this place while looking for the lyrics of a song the choir used to sing in church. I think it's called "America to Your Knees". Has anyone ever heard of it?
Hi Harborgirl, I found the song on this webpage: http://www.layliturgy.com/AHS/AHS_hyml_idx/E/AHS_Eleven_New_Gospel_Songs.htm It was written by Esther Kerr Rusthoi in 1956,
Dare2believe: I think I found what you are looking for as well: Song Of David lyrics
Artist - The Statler Brothers Album - Holy Bible, The Old Testament Lyrics - Song Of David
David, son of Jesse Shepheard to his fathers sheep Played the harp when Saul got weary Rocked the giant till he was fast asleep
People prayed When Saul killed thousands When David killed ten thousand they cheered And all that noise they saw angry And the shepheard was on the lamb for years
David was a man down in Israel Fighter, lover, shepherd, king, outlaw And through it all God loved him and forgave him David the man who'd done it all
Bathsheba wife of Uriah Took a bath under David's watchful eye He fell in love and took her body Then he sent Uriah out to die
He was weak like you and I are And as a sinner David did his part But God said this man David Is a man after my own heart
David was a man down in Israel Fighter, lover, shepherd, king, outlaw And through it all God loved him and forgave him David the man who'd done it all Ah David the man who'd done it all
