King of Kings

V1 In the darkness we were waiting, Without hope without light Till from heaven You came running, There was mercy in Your eyes To fulfil the law and prophets, To a virgin came the Word From a throne of endless glory, To a cradle in the dirt CH Praise the Father, Praise the Son Praise the Spirit three in One God of glory, Majesty Praise forever to the King of Kings V2 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 V3 And the morning that You rose, All of heaven held its breath Till 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 V4 And the Church of Christ was born, Then the Spirit lit the flame Now this gospel truth of old, Shall not kneel shall not faint By His blood and in His Name, In His freedom I am free For the love of Jesus Christ, Who has resurrected me
