Oh King David

Oh King David

Oh King David
With all you did
You taught us poor mortals how to live
Songs of praise to God you loved to give
You wrote the 150 Psalms
Even after you could have been damned
For what you shamefully had done.

You had trust
And we also must
In God's forgiving heart
That we sometimes hurt
With our misdeeds
And our pride and greed.

Whenever we fall and fail as you did
You showed Oh King David
We need to overcome the shame and guilt
And to not ever be hopeless and quit
But from God to ask for His mercy and forgiveness
And not to stop to sing Him beautiful rhymes and phrases.
