4Him - The Measure Of A Man lyrics

rate me

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

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

Their rigorous details<br />

They can do their best to rate you<br />

And they'll place you on the charts<br />

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

But there's more to what you're worth<br />

Than their human eyes can see<br />

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

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 />

The measure of a man<br />

Well, you can doubt your worth<br />

And search for who you are<br />

And where you stand<br />

But God made you in His image<br />

When He formed you in His hands<br />

And He looks at you with mercy<br />

And He sees you through His love<br />

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

For there's more to what you're worth<br />

Than you could ever comprehend<br />

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

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<br />

To the bottom of your heart<br />

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

The measure of a man<br />

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

There is so much more<br />

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 />

I say the measure of a man<br />

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<br />

To the bottom of your heart<br />

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

Oh, I say the measure of<br />

The measure of a man<br />

Is not how tall you stand,<br />

How wealthy or intelligent you are<br />

Oh, I've found the measure of a man<br />

God knows and understands it<br />

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

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

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

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

The measure of a man<br />

I know, I know
