"That's My King!" Who Began The New Creation As The King Of Every Nation And Came To Grant Salvation To Our Most Evil Population!

We see the genesis of Jesus Christ in the beginning; He's the only one on this list Who didn't do any sinning; The wicked sin some of His ancestors did will leave your head spinning; This points to unfathomable mercy and grace that will only leave you grinning, for He's the God-Man Who died and rose to be forever winning!
He came to earth to make all things new; The mess Adam made He came to undo; Even in us who meet here at Chew, and all in the world who sit in the pew; No matter what happens, He'll bring you through, and work all for good – everything He'll renew; With goodness and mercy He'll pursue; One day He'll make every sadness untrue!
He's "Yahweh Saves" – the Messiah of all; This list will prove His phenomenal call; He removed God's wrath when He tasted the gall and rose up on high – the tallest of tall; Now He's King of kings with power not small; He takes a wicked Saul and makes him a Paul; If you trust in Him, you'll never fall!
He's both David and Abraham's greatest Son; Fulfilling the kingship and covenant done; In His death and resurrection New Creation's begun; His power and might are second to none; His glory and beauty shine like the sun!

That's my King!  Do you know Him?!

Jesus' family history includes an adulterer, murderer, and whore; His abundant love and mercy to richly underscore; To all types of sinners He's the saving open door; If you repent and believe, He won't ignore, but your hope and purity He'll restore; For He's the Dirty Rose Lover Who all our sins He bore, and conquered death and hell providing grace galore; To get this grace you cannot work like it's a chore; You must simply believe and then do nothing more; His Spirit will live in you to cause you to adore; Then you'll do good works for Him as you never did before; More and more all evil you'll begin to abhor, and against your own sin you'll wage an all-out holy war!
Wicked King Jechoniah is in His family line; None of his son's will be king as God's cursing sign; So Joseph's not the father in Jesus' bloodline; But he's the father for legal kingship in God's good design; And Mary's the source for the Davidic bloodline; Oh how great is the plan of the Divine; The things He assigns make His glory brightly shine, and His plans are all so gloriously fine!
Jesus has an amazing family tree; It shows God's compassion if you have eyes to see; His love and mercy are always free to all who trust and with His Gospel agree no matter their sin to the evilest degree; So come to Him by faith and make your plea; Beg Him for mercy on bended knee, and to this Mercy-Heart God may you quickly flee!

That's my King!  That's my King!
