Go my way
GO MY WAY
JH 10.7.16
by Joel Howard, October 2016
I am David, On a hillside.
Left out of the chosen
'til I’m sent for
'til I’m summoned
'til I play my music
for the King.
I am David.
I am Jesse’s son.
I am still the one
left home to tend the sheep
While the brothers fight
the battle, while I stay
and learn to go my way
Go my way
I will go my way
Yet another day
I will go my way
I will go my way
And like David,
when summoned
to carry bread
I will go to see
This giant they call Goliath
who doesn’t intimidate me
“Who will go fight him?”
People shy away.
“Who will go fight him?”
Left out of the chosen
'til I’m sent for

'til I play my music

I am David.
I am Jesse’s son.
I am still the one

While the brothers fight
the battle, while I stay
and learn to go my way
Go my way
I will go my way
Yet another day
I will go my way
I will go my way
And like David,
when summoned
to carry bread
I will go to see
This giant they call Goliath
who doesn’t intimidate me
“Who will go fight him?”
People shy away.
“Who will go fight him?”
Are the words they say.
I see it now: “The failure child.”
Yet in my heart of hearts
I won’t fear this war.
For the Lord who was with
my sheep in the wilderness
Also walks with me through this
Yet in my heart of hearts
I won’t fear this war.
For the Lord who was with
my sheep in the wilderness
Also walks with me through this
I will go my way.
I will go my way
These are the words I say.
I will go my way
Take me to battle
Try your armor on me.
My God is the one
writing my story.
I will go my way
These are the words I say.
I will go my way
Take me to battle
Try your armor on me.
My God is the one
writing my story.
I mustn't walk in the
way of the wicked
No, I will delight in
You, God, forever!
I will go my way.
way of the wicked
No, I will delight in
You, God, forever!
I will go my way.
Hear the enemy taunting.
I will go my way
See the giant falling.
I will go my way
“Long live the king”, people calling
I will still go my way
I will yet go my way
I will yet go my way!
with Him…
