Humble At Heart
V E R S E 1
I never chased the spotlight, never needed fancy things
just a roof that didn’t leak and the song a good wife sings
We scraped by on Ridgeway, paint on my hands and calluses deep;
but every night I’d thank the Lord for the little we could keep
Didn’t have silver or gold, but I had love that held me tight
and a heart that learned early - pride’s a heavy fight

Humble at heart, that’s all I aim to be
Down on my knees where the truth sets me free
No crown on my head, no throne in my name
just a working man’s prayer in the pourin’ rain
Thank You for the broken roads that brought me this far
Lord, keep me humble at heart

When the boss showed his colors, dumping drums in the dark
I could’ve looked away, kept quiet for the spark
but a family was countin’ on me to do right
so I picked up that phone, stepped into the light
lost the job, gained my peace, walked away clean
‘cause a man with nothin’ left still knows what he means
C H O R U S
Humble at heart, that’s all I aim to be
Down on my knees where the truth sets me free
No crown on my head, no throne in my name
just a working man’s prayer in the pourin’ rain
Thank You for the battles that taught me to bend
Lord, keep me humble at heart until the end

I’ve buried dreams and loved ones, watched the world change too fast
Seen flags fly high and heroes fade into the past
but through every tear and every mile I’ve roamed;
your grace was the anchor that called me home
I don’t need the world’s applause or a bigger piece of pie
Just to stand before You someday and hear You say, “Well done, my child.”

Now the kids are growin’, life’s still throwing curves
But I wake up grateful for the breath I don’t deserve
Old Glory waves, and I still feel that fire
but the real glory’s in the One who lifts me higher
so I’ll keep these hands open, and these boots on the ground
Trustin’ in the quiet, where real blessings are found
F I N A L C H O R U S
Humble at heart, that’s all I aim to be
Down on my knees where the truth sets me free
No crown on my head, no throne in my name
Just a thankful soul callin’ out Your name
Thank You for the journey, for the love, for the scars
Lord, keep me humble at heart

Yeah, humble at heart […] that’s where the real riches start.
