The command to silence Jesus gave
Until He's raised up from the grave
For only through His death He'd save
And tread upon death's killing wave
The way to life He'd clear and pave
And all our condemnation waive
For though to sin we were a slave
We'd sin and lust and misbehave
Christ died and rose so God forgave
His Spirit makes us strong and brave
And leads us holy to behave
Since we're forevermore God's slave!
That's my King!
The three obey – their mouths they close
But Christ's good words a problem pose
Until the Son from the dead rose
How could Christ die? – this no one knows
Yet this is how God's story goes
A Suff'ring Servant Isaiah shows
He takes God's wrath – He's crushed with blows
And through His death evil's deposed
To save us from death's wicked lows
For us the Christ this suffering chose
And let Himself be stripped of clothes
Now all our sin He does expose
By faith in Him we find repose
For He the devil will oppose
And win the victory for all those
Who trust the Son for us He arose!
That's my King! Do you know Him?!
Scribes say Elijah must come first
But Christ is here – was this reversed?
No – Elijah's come as it was versed
And Christ must die – receive the worst
For on that tree He would be cursed
And in God's wrath be all immersed
Then rise alive and death's grip burst
Earth's dreaded curse would be reversed
All broken hearts He'd have them nursed
And for this Christ alone we thirst!
That's my King!
To read the Bible as we should
We all must read as Jesus would
For how He reads is always good
Not wrong and blind under a hood
Interpreting as literal wood
So read like Christ just as you should
Then He won't be misunderstood!
That's my King!
The cross comes first and then the crown
For all glory our King's cast down
He Who is the greatest Noun
The greatest of all those around
He died to win a wedding gown
So down on us our God won't frown
For we've been lost but now we're found
Our God raised Jesus from the ground
And now His grace towards us abounds
His love forever will astound!
That's my King! I wonder if you know Him today?!
Christ Jesus Told What Was To Come
Commanded Silence Keep It From
The Crowds Till Death Is Overcome
Elijah Restores All Things In Sum
John Beat The True Repentance Drum
And Was Struck Down Like Hated Scum
As Christ Would Die Like Sheep That’s Dumb
Under God’s Wrath He Would Succumb
Then Rise To Save His Chosen Some
Now Cruel Death Is Overcome
Christ Fills With Joy More Than Rum
He’s Worthy More Than All Income
So Praise His Name And To Him Come
Of Every Joy He’s The Sum!
That's my King! That's my King!
