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
Each one passed
Except the last
No one thought to call him
Surely he would never wear a crown
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
One by one problems come
And dreams get shattered
And sometimes it's hard to understand
And 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
