4Him - Measure Of A Man lyrics

rate me

This world can analyze and size you up and throw you on the scales<br />

They can I.Q. you and run you through their rigorous details<br />

They can do their best to rate you and they'll place you on the charts<br />

And then back it up with scientific smarts<br />

<br />

But there's more to what you're worth but their human eyes can't see<br />

<br />

Oh, I say the measure of a man is not how tall you stand<br />

How wealthy or intelligent you are<br />

'Cause I've found out the measure of a man<br />

God knows and understands<br />

For He looks inside to the bottom of your heart<br />

And what's in the heart defines the measure of a man, oh yeah yeah<br />

<br />

Well, you can doubt your worth and search for who you are<br />

And where you stand<br />

But God made you in His image when He formed you in His hands<br />

And He looks at you with mercy and He sees you through His love<br />

You're His child and that will always be enough<br />

<br />

For there's more to what you're worth than you could ever comprehend<br />

<br />

Oh I say the measure of a man is not how tall you stand<br />

How wealthy or intelligent you are<br />

'Cause I've found out the measure of a man<br />

God knows and understands<br />

For He looks inside to the bottom of your heart<br />

And what's in the heart defines the measure of a man, oh yeah yeah<br />

<br />

You can spend your life pursuing physical perfection<br />

There is so much more, more than ever meets the eye<br />

For God looks through the surface<br />

And He defines your worth by what is on the inside<br />

<br />

I say the measure of a man is not how tall you stand<br />

How wealthy or intelligent you are<br />

'Cause I've found out the measure of a man<br />

God knows and understands<br />

For He looks inside to the bottom of your heart<br />

And what's in the heart defines<br />

<br />

Oh I say the measure of a man<br />

Is not how tall you stand, how wealthy or intelligent you are<br />

Oh, I've found the measure of a man, God knows and understands<br />

He looks to the bottom of your heart and what's in the heart defines<br />

Yeah, what's in the heart defines<br />

Yeah, what's in the heart defines the measure of a man, oh yeah yeah<br />

I know, I know, I know, yeah yeah yeah, yeah yeah
