Measure Of A Man

This world can analyze and size you up

And throw you on the scales

They can IQ you and run you thorugh

Their rigorous details

They can do their best to rate

And they'll place you on their charts

And then back it up with scientific smarts

But there's more to what you're worth

Than what their human eyes can see

Oh I say the measure of a man

Is not how tall you stand

How wealthy or intelligent you are

'Cause I found out the measure of a man

God knows and understand

For He looks inside to the bottom of your heart

And what's in the heart defines

The measure of a man

Well you can doubt your worth

And search for who you are and where you stand

But God made you in His image

When He formed you in His hands

And He looks at you with mercy

And He sees you through His love

You're His child and that will always be enough

For there's more to what your worth

Than you could ever comprehend

Oh I say the measure of a man

Is not how tall you stand

How wealthy or intelligent you are

'Cause I found out the measure of a man

God knows and understand

For He looks inside to the bottom of your heart

And what's in the heart defines

The measure of a man

You can spend your life persuing physical perfection

But there's so much more than ever meets the eye

For God looks through the surface

And he defines your worth by what is on the inside

Oh I say the measure of a man

Is not how tall you stand

How wealthy or intelligent you are

'Cause I found out the measure of a man

God knows and understand

For He looks inside to the bottom of your heart

And what's in the heart defines

The measure of a man
