David, when he'd sing about You
He'd sing about love
Psalms he wrote are written down to
Encourage us
And if I have the sort of faith
Of Thy shepherd Dave
I will ask You in the heavens
To hear my cryin' and my praise
I'll be like David

Be like David was
Be like David was
Be like David was
Be like David was to You

David didn't seem a proud dude
He'd bring it all up
Worries, and his fears and doubts, too
The miserable stuff
And if I hide some stuff from You
It's really shyness
Lord, forgive me and guide the way
'Cause that is my wish
To be like David

Be like David was
Be like David was
Be like David was
Be like David was to You

Spoken:

I will bless the Lord at all times: His praise shall continually be in my mouth
Bless the Lord, O my soul: and all that is within me, bless his holy name
O Lord, our Lord, how excellent is thy name in all the earth!
In the multitude of my thoughts within me thy comforts delight my soul

And if I can extol Your name
And Thy blessed ways
I will write You hymns of Heaven
And glorify You all my days
And be like David

Be like David was
Be like David was
Be like David was
Be like David was to You

Well, I'll be like David was
Well, I'll be like David was
Well, I'll be like David was (Woooh!)
Be like David was to You

Well, I'll be like David was (Yeah?)
Well, I'll be like David was
Well, I'll be like David was
Be like David was to You

Well, I'll be like David was (Woooh!)
Well, I'll be like David was
Well, I'll be like David was
Be like David was to You (Yeah!)

Well, I'll be like David was
