In the years of the kingdom

When the wars were not done

Thirty men stood with David

Every battle hard won

They were not born to comfort

They were not bred for ease

They were forged in the wilderness

Hardened by blood and by grief

And the king knew their names

Every scar every stone

Every field where they stood

When they stood there alone

David's mighty men

Men who would not break

They walked into the fire

For their king's sake

Blood on the ground

Snow in the pit

The Lord gave the victory

They refused to quit

Mighty men

Mighty men

David's mighty men

Eleazar stood his ground

When the army fell back

His hand locked on his sword

Through the length of the attack

Shammah held a field of lentils

When Israel turned and ran

Sometimes the ground beneath your feet

Is where God makes his stand

And the king knew their names

Every scar every stone

Every field where they stood

When they stood there alone

David's mighty men

Men who would not break

They walked into the fire

For their king's sake

Blood on the ground

Snow in the pit

The Lord gave the victory

They refused to quit

Mighty men

Mighty men

David's mighty men

Benaiah went down

Into the pit in the snow

No sword and no spear

Just a man and his God below

The lion found out

What a righteous man is

When the Lord of Hosts

Says the victory's His

He came up from the pit

He came up from the cold

He came up with the lion dead

And a story worth being told

MIGHTY MEN

MIGHTY MEN

DOWN IN THE PIT

HE WOULD NOT QUIT

MIGHTY MEN

MIGHTY MEN

DAVID'S MIGHTY MEN

David's mighty men

Men who would not break

They walked into the fire

For their king's sake

Blood on the ground

Snow in the pit

The Lord gave the victory

They refused to quit

Mighty men

Mighty men

David's mighty men

Mighty men

Mighty men

Mighty men of David
