Capo 4th fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Verse 1

This world can analyze and size you up and throw you on the scales

 They can I.Q. you and run you through

 Their rigorous details

 They can do their best to rate you

 And they'll place you on the charts

 And then back it up with scientific smarts

 But there's more to what you're worth

 Than their human eyes can see

Chorus

 Oh, I say the measure of a man

 Is not how tall you stand

 How wealthy or intelligent you are

 'Cause I've found out the measure of a man

 God knows and understands

 For He looks inside to the bottom of your heart

 And what's in the heart defines

 The measure of a man

Verse 2

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 you're worth

Than you could ever comprehend

Bridge

 You can spend your life pursuing physical perfection

 There is so much more

 More than ever meets the eye

 For God looks through the surface

 And He defines your worth by what is on the inside

Chorus

I say the measure of a man

Is not how tall you stand

How wealthy or intelligent you are

'Cause I've found out the measure of a man

God knows and understands

For He looks inside

To the bottom of your heart

And what's in the heart defines

Oh, I say the measure of

The measure of a man

Is not how tall you stand,

How wealthy or intelligent you are

Oh, I've found the measure of a man

God knows and understands it

For He looks to the bottom of your heart

Outro

 And what's in the heart defines

 Yeah, what's in the heart defines

 Yeah, what's in the heart defines

 The measure of a man

 I know, I know
