Jesus King Of Glory
Written by: Jon Roberts
Lyrics
Could it be that our God
Would immerse Himself in history?
From the frailty of birth
To the horrors known at Calvary
All glory laid aside
To be tempted, cursed and tried
Could it be that this Man
Knew authority to calm the seas
Raise the dead, with the hands
That were pierced for our iniquities
The crowds, “Hosanna!” cried
Yet would soon sing “Crucify!”
He is the King of Glory
He crowns redemption’s story
His love overflows to prodigals and foes
And calls us home
The Word that holds creation
Is scarred for our salvation
What King condescends to make rebels friends?
Jesus, King of Glory
Could it be that this King
Came to conquer death and mock the grave?
Take the fear, take the sting
For the taunting crowds he chose to save
And died to bring to life
What a Saviour! What a Christ!
Hosanna! Hosanna!
He is alive and reigning! He is alive and reigning!
Hosanna! Hosanna!
Sing to the God who saves us! Sing to the God who saves us!
