David (/ˈdeɪvɪd/; Hebrew: דָּוִד, Modern David, Tiberian Dāwîḏ;ISO 259-3 Dawid; Arabic: داوُد Dāwūd; Syriac: ܕܘܝܕ Dawid; Ancient Greek: Δαυίδ; Latin: Davidus, David; Strong's: Daveed) was, according to the Books of Samuel, the second king of the United Kingdom of Israel, and according to the New Testament, an ancestor of Jesus. His life is conventionally dated to c. 1040 – 970 BCE, his reign over Judah c. 1010–970 BCE.
The Books of Samuel, 1 Kings, and 1 Chronicles are the only Old Testament sources of information on David, although the Tel Dan Stele (dated c. 850–835 BCE) contains the phrase בית דוד (bytdwd), read as "House of David", which many scholars confirm to be a likely plausible match to the existence in the mid-9th century BCE of a Judean royal dynasty called the House of David.
Depicted as a valorous warrior of great renown, and a poet and musician credited for composing much of the psalms contained in the Book of Psalms, King David is widely viewed as a righteous and effective king in battle and civil justice. He is described as a man after God's own heart in 1 Samuel 13:14 and Acts 13:22.
My Life may refer to:
Father says he is the only one
And even if he is the only one
I find him so confusing still today
Mother says she is the only one
And even if she is the only one
She was the one I needed her today
She was the one I needed her today
You know I never tried to hurt you
I never tried you know I really never tried
Somehow I find I really need you
I'll never, ever, ever leave you
You never ever will believe me
Chorus:
Even if you walked across the skies
I'll be with you tonight
Even if you told a thousand lies
I'd still believe you
All alone along the sea I dream of you
You know I need you here with me
The emptiness inside my heart
Your an angel well within my
Your and angel weel within my sight
Sister says she was the only one
And even if she was the only one
My life was just completed yesterday
Darling say that you're the only one
And if you say that you're the only one
My life was just completed here today
My life was just completed here today
I find him so confusing still today
Mother says she is the only one
And even if she is the only one
She was the one I needed her today
She was the one I needed her today
You know I never tried to hurt you
I never tried you know I really never tried
Somehow I find I really need you
I'll never, ever, ever leave you
You never ever will believe me
Chorus:
Even if you walked across the skies
I'll be with you tonight
Even if you told a thousand lies
I'd still believe you
All alone along the sea I dream of you
You know I need you here with me
The emptiness inside my heart
Your an angel well within my
