[Verse 1] Samuel dies, and all Israel gathers to mourn and bury him at Ramah. David sends a respectful request during Nabal's sheep-shearing feast. David orders four hundred men to arm for vengeance. Abigail quickly loads bread, wine, sheep, grain, raisins. [Pre-Chorus] No crowd could see the faithfulness begun, But quiet mercy worked when day was done. [Chorus] Blessed Be Thy Advice, hold the promise near, Through the quiet road and changing year. A faithful heart kept walking without fame, And mercy wrote a future in the name. [Verse 2] Nabal holds a kingly feast and remains drunk until morning. His heart dies within him when Abigail tells him. David sends for Abigail, and she becomes his wife. David and Abishai enter Saul's sleeping camp beside the spear and water cruse. [Bridge] They take the spear and cruse while a divine sleep covers the camp. David calls to Abner and Saul from a distant hill, proving his mercy. Saul confesses sin and blesses David before their final separation. David receives Ziklag from Achish and conducts hidden raids while maintaining Philistine trust. [Final Chorus] Blessed Be Thy Advice, hold the promise near, Through the quiet road and changing year. A faithful heart kept walking without fame, And mercy wrote a future through the name. [Outro] The years moved on, the faithful promise stayed. Mercy was larger than the quiet choice they made.
