Shepherd Boy



Words and Music by Ray Boltz and Steve Millikan



One by one Jesse's sons

Stood before the prophet

Their father knew a king

Would soon be found

And each one passed

Except the last

No one thought to call him

Surely he would never

Wear a crown



CHORUS:

But when others see a shepherd boy

God may see a king

Even though your life seems filled

With ordinary things

In just a moment He can touch you

And everything will change

When others see a shepherd boy

God may see a king



One by one problems come

And dreams get shattered

And sometimes it's hard

To understand

But things like chance

And circumstance

They don't really matter

Our Father holds tomorrow

In His hands



CHORUS



Well it wasn't the oldest

It wasn't the strongest

Chosen on that day

And yet the giants fell

And nations trembled

When they stood in his way



CHORUS
