God Says I'M Royalty

There are too many people walking around every single day 
And if you ask them who they are most don't know what to say 
You need to know who you are and how you came to be 
And if you are a child of God you are royalty 

We are all descendants of the most high God 
children of the King 
But if you don't have a relationship with Him 
That concept doesn't mean a thing 
But God says we're all royalty so we need to comprehend 
That it's not our culture, it's not our race it's being creations of Him 

Now the enemy is on the prowl working day and night
Trying to deter our youth from acknowledging God's light 
Too much social media with Twitter, Facebook and Skype 
So caught up in their Cel phones and every technological hype 
But God looks at our hearts, He discerns what's inside 
He's not concerned about hair color, tattoos or exposed backsides 

God says we're royalty, He says we're His chosen offspring 
And He called a young David to come forth and do a new thing 
Now David was not a fighter he was a tender of sheep
But God can flip the script and with faith make you take the leap
God can use anyone when it comes to accomplishing His goals
He can call on the most unlikely person 
and infuse him with power and control 

God says we're royalty with power, majesty and might
He will bless and anoint us with grace, mercy and light
God says we're royalty and when He calls us to serve
Don't second guess His actions this appointment you deserve 
To be a vessel that God will use, a means to an anointed end
To change the course of history to benefit all men

Now David was to battle but not King Saul's way
David had a god-given talent to be put on display
David was a projectile warrior a master of the slingshot 
So he picked up 5 smooth stones and proceeded towards his lot 
Only one stone was needed to take Golieth down 
It hit that giant in the forehead 
and immediately knocked him to the ground 
David's actions changed the course of history 
It also came to affect his entire family
Eventually David became a king
and because of his faith and behavior 
His descendants became the line that produced 
Jesus the Christ Our Savior 

And like David I know who I am 
And from Whom I came to be
And like David I'm a child of God 
And God says I'm royalty
