The Mark of a Man of God
by Steve Camp

Album: Abandoned to God

A Godly man is such a rarity today
so many start strong and true and quickly fall away
a Godly man will take his stand
he can't be bought or sold
hand to the plow he won't look back
though other hearts turn cold
he keeps the faith
he keeps his conscience clear
he lives this life of grace through all his years

Chorus:
The mark of a man of God is what he's faithful to
and what he's fleeing from
and what he's fighting for
the heart of a man of God is what he daily pursues
his family friends the work the Church and worship of the Lord
the Godly man daily takes up the Cross of Christ
and faithfully follows him as a living sacrifice

He's not ashamed of the Gospel
his sufficiency's in Christ
and the power of integrity is the passion of his life
instead of reckless faith he has proven his faith works
and the ultimate priority is the Master's plan for the Church
saved without a doubt, because his first love is the Lord
the Gospel according to Jesus is the truth he would die for

Chorus

Bridge:
He lives his life to teach the Word, in season and in not
For he fears more than any man, the approval of his God
He lovingly, yet firmly leads those placed under his care
The power of his ministry is that he is a man of prayer

Chorus

The Godly man takes a young Timothy like me
and teaches me to run the race
to carry on this life of grace
he sets the mark and we keep the pace
with this man of God
