King of Kings

In the darkness we were waiting without hope and without light
Till from heaven you came running; there was mercy in your eyes
To fulfill the law and prophets, to a virgin came the Word
From a throne of endless glory to a cradle in the dirt

Chorus
Praise the Father; praise the Son
Praise the Spirit, three in one
God of glory, majesty
Praise forever to the King of Kings

To reveal the kingdom coming and to reconcile the lost
To redeem the whole creation, you did not despise the cross
For even in your suffering, you saw to the other side
Knowing this was our salvation, Jesus for our sake you died

Chorus

On the morning that you rose all of heaven held its breath
Til that stone was moved for good for the Lamb had conquered death
And the dead rose from their tombs and the angels stood in awe
For the souls of all who’d come to the Father are restored

Chorus

And the Church of Christ was born, then the Spirit lit the flame
Now this Gospel truth of old shall not kneel and shall not faith
By his blood and in his name, in his freedom I am free
For the love of Jesus Christ who has resurrected me

Chorus

Praise the Father; praise the Son
Praise the Spirit, three in one
God of glory, majesty
Praise forever to the King of Kings

Praise forever to the King of Kings
