"David, Beloved" lyrics by Benjamin Newman David, beloved, true and devoted Leader and fighter, singer-songwriter Fight for what's right in me, dance for delight in me Sing the Lord's song in me, show the Lord strong in me David, anointed, yet oft disappointed Sometimes falling and failing, in the end still prevailing If you stumble and sin in me, turn around, make amends in me Get up, try again in me, 'til at last you win in me Though the passage of time conceals your seed's line Every one of us carries a spark that's divine When we know who we are -- when I know who I am -- David, melech Yisrael, chai vekayam!
