"That's My King!" Who Has Highest Authority Position After Dying For Sin Remission And Calls Us To The Great Commission!

My King's utterly supreme with all the power; He rules every moment and every hour; All God's enemies He will devour; And on us forever blessings shower; For on that cross He took death sour; Which made Him in the garden cower; Then rose again in glorious power; With authority over all He'll forever tower!
Therefore we carry out His great commission; This should be our holy ambition; To make disciples in full submission; To the Lord of glory – our great Physician; And obey His every command and admonition; For our salvation He met every condition; Quenched the wrath of God in humble contrition; Then rose from the grave without opposition; Now from all death He grants abolition; To all who trust Him of their own volition; He'll grant joy and pleasures without intermission!

That's my King!  Do you know Him?!

This Gospel must go forth to every nation; Some have no access to His revelation; Apart from Christ there's only damnation; We must go tell in every location; Since He's so worthy for all of creation; To bow down to Him in utter prostration; And give Him all glory without cessation; He'll fill us with joy for eternal duration; He's our only firm foundation; So listen up – His congregation; Are you burdened for the lost and every nation?  Your King deserves all their adoration; So go forth for Him and preach salvation; And love the lost without limitation!
Jesus is with you to the very end; He stands alone in Himself as the greatest friend; On Him forever you can always depend; Against all evil He will defend; He'll be with you to help wherever He'll send; And through the pain He'll help you transcend; Praise Him for how He did condescend; He came all evil to suspend; And life forever to extend!

That's my King!  That's my King!

"That's My King!" Who's Rich Beyond Measure But Gave Up His Treasure To Fill Us With Pleasure!


The rich young man falls on his knees
And calls Christ good – now help me please
Eternal life he wants to seize
But his heart feeds a great disease
More than the God Who hears his pleas
He loves his money more than these
This is not good – it's sinful sleaze
All his goodness he thinks he sees
Which from his youth he's done with ease
God's holiness cannot appease
Since it's not good – idol disease
So trust the King o'er all decrees
The wrath of God He did appease
And rose again – He holds the keys
To life forever, and He frees
From all our idol loving sleaze
And heals our deepest heart disease
For He Himself's the prize we seize
He's our treasure beyond degrees
So come to Him Who all foresees
Your heart's great thirsts He will appease!

That's my King! I wonder if you know Him today?!

Be sure of this – our God is good
This rich young man misunderstood
And though he's not come from the hood
He'd failed to do the good he should
His god was gold – with wealth he stood
So sin alone is all he could
Jesus loved and understood
Therefore He died upon that wood
And rose alive – on death He stood
He gives new life so that you could
Turn from sin – live as you should
By faith in Christ God makes you good
So treasure Him – the greatest good!

That's my King!

We all are sinners – this is true
Even us out in the pew
Our hearts sweet idols do accrue
Until His sweetest love breaks through
We turn to Christ with hearts anew
And stick to Him like dust on glue
So bid your greatest loves adieu
And take Him for your greatest view
For on that cross He died for you
Richest Young Ruler out they threw
But three days passed – He rose on cue
And all our enemies He slew
The greatest Lover – He will woo
And be to you forever true
He's better than you ever knew
Now your whole life He will renew!

That's my King! Do you know Him?!

Since Christ so loved, the truth He must
Tell this man and not adjust
Point out to him his money lust
All idol loves with care He'll bust
And call on Him the Christ to trust
He died to make poor sinners just
And lives to evermore combust
Our hearts with growing love robust
For this very God we trust
So let's not put our hopes in rust
Humble stay at the cross dust
May Christ alone be our true lust
May all our hopes on Him be thrust
He is our only need and must!

That's my King!

Christ Is The Riches Of All Of Creation
The Rich Young Ruler Of Every Nation
The Good God From Heaven – The Incarnation
Who Obeyed Every Law – God’s Declaration
Yet Died For Our Sins As Propitiation
Then Rose Up Alive For Our Justification
By Faith Alone There’s No Condemnation
His Spirit Has Come For Sanctification
So Money Love’s Gone And We Conquer Temptation
Unlike This Rich Man Who Faced His Damnation
We Freely Give In Praise Celebration
Our Treasure’s In Heaven At The Consummation
King Jesus Our Preoccupation, Infatuation
And Holy Fascination, Who Causes Intoxication
More Than Anything Else In All Of Creation!

That's my King! That's my King!

"That's My King!" Who's The Littlest Child With Greatest Righteousness Compiled Yet For Our Sins He Died Reviled!


Keep the children far away
That's what His own disciples say
They're unimportant – only play
And so needy day to day
They waste our time – our life delay
What they take they can't repay
And all our bank accounts decay
But Jesus showed another way
He took them in and made them stay
His mercy says: “Come here today!  
My mercy-heart you can't repay!” 
He put His love on full display
When on His back our sins did weigh
The Son of Man our God did slay
To take our sins and pride away
All our hopes in Him are “Yea!” 
God raised Him up on the third day
So now bow down to Him and pray
He'll make you right with God today
And cause you to His Word obey
Then on streets of gold you may
Forever dance and laugh and play!

That's my King!
 
On Christ alone we must depend
As helpless babes we can't ascend
There's nothing in us to commend
But only sin our hearts intend
The God of heaven we offend
Therefore our God so loved He'd send
His only Son His life to spend
To lowest lows He would descend
And on that cross His life expend
Then rise alive all death to end
And make poor sinner babes His friend
To helpless faith He will extend
Strong arms of mercy to defend
All condemnation He will end
And grant a love none comprehend
He's greatest joy – o’er all transcend! 

That's my King! Do you know Him?!

Jesus became the helpless Son
Though He could crush His captors' fun
He died and all the work is done
He rose the universe to stun
Now He's the best – second to none
So trust in Him – the Rising Sun!

That's my King! That's my King!

Christ Is The Hope Of Every Child
Without His Word They’ll Live Like Wild
Apart From Him They’ll Die Defiled
So Bring Them To The Christ They Riled
He Died A Curse, Cast Out, Exiled
Then Rose Alive All Praise Compiled
By Faith Alone We’re Reconciled
Like A Child, Dependent, Mild
All Must Come To The Lamb Reviled
For Then On Us Our God Has Smiled
Please Come To Christ Just Like A Child!

That's my King! That's my King!

"That's My King!" Who Was Never Self-seeking But Gave His Life Shrieking To Show The Love God's Speaking!

Jesus never sought His own; But gave up His very throne to with His death atone for all the sin we've sown since holiness we've blown – our hearts were like a stone; Pure marriage we disown; To hatred we are prone; Our hope's in Christ alone; His mercy-heart He's shown; He died with painful groan; And from the grave He's flown; Now we're His bone of bone; If by faith we're known; In holiness we're grown; We'll never be alone; He never will disown; We'll sit up on His throne – He's the best Husband ever known!
Love doesn't seek its own way; It doesn't demand the last say; It comes from a heart of humble clay; Molded according to the Master's way; Because the Christ our debt did pay; On that cross He did obey; And crushed our selfishness display; Then rose our captor – death – to slay; So come to Him – bow down and pray; He'll take your selfishness away; Live "Christ is all!" without delay!

That's my King!  Do you know Him!?

So die to self in communication; Be slow to speak – don't stir agitation; When conflicts arise causing tempter inflation; A kind answer cools the heat formation; Remove the log from your own eye's location; Focus on "me, myself, and I" sin liberation; Be quick to confess your own sin violation; Be first to the cross for pride cancellation; Husband love your wife as Christ loves the congregation; Wife you submit – the church imitation; Enjoy each other to avoid temptation; Come together often for love sensation; Use your money for God glorification; Parent your children and aim at salvation; Fill them with God's Word – their joy foundation; Above all look to Christ – our hope and elation; He saves from all failures in marriage formation; He's the perfect Spouse ruling all of creation;  The ultimate self-less One Who died for every nation; And rose up in triumph – a victorious celebration; Now for His own there's no condemnation; To God be the glory in all marriage reformation!

That's my King!  That's my King!
