A ONE-IN-A-MILLION MAN
(Ps 1:2; Prov 22:1; Lk 10:27; Acts 13:22; I Cor 13:4,5,13; Eph 5:28; II Tim 2:15)
He may not have muscles; he may not be rich,
He may not have much to say,
But he has something very rare;
He loves God in a mighty way.
Rather than riches of silver and gold,
He chooses to wear a good name.
Whether his own or the name of Christ,
He wears both names without shame.
He is slow to anger; he is not proud;
He is patient and does not boast.
His hope and faith are in the Lord,
But his love one can see the most.
He loves the Lord with his heart and soul--
Prays and meditates day and night;
He serves with all his strength and his mind;
God’s word is his delight.
He raises his kids in the way of the Lord,
Loves his wife as he loves himself.
The man who’s a man after God’s own heart,
Won’t leave God’s Word on the shelf.
If you’re a man who is willing,
Who knows, “With God’s strength, I can,”
God can turn you, an ordinary guy,
Into a one-in-a-million man.
