"That's My King!" Who's The Son Of The Blessed No Testimony Against Him Past The Test He's The Greatest And Best Who They Beat And Oppressed Undressed And Killed With Jest To Remove Sins As Far As East Is From West Then He Rose With A Quest To Leave Us At Rest And Forever Obsessed With His Glory Possessed!

They tried my King Jesus in a kangaroo court
The leaders of Israel were a wicked sort
His Words they'd distort
Their testimony came up short
And couldn't support
What they tried to purport
Wicked lies they'd import
False accusations snort
And Pilate extort
Jesus' life they'd abort
Mock Him as sport
And His teachings deport
But His mission they could not thwart
Though He died the most gruesome death of any sort
He can't be stopped by any court
No matter their last resort
“He is risen!” is the report!
He conquered all that sins distort
He's alive and strong like the mightiest fort
He's the final and greatest court
And our everlasting escort
Who will never leave or come up short
So now we exhort:  Trust in Him as your greatest resort
Your most satisfying, loving, and holy Support!

That's my King!  Do you know Him?!

He's the great Son of Man with all dominion in hand
Our worship is His demand
His Kingdom will forever stand
Just as He promised and planned
Not like the sinking sand
Of our sin that's forever banned
It's empty and bland
But He gives joy that will forever expand
And never land
But take you by the hand
And soar forever grand
Every trial it will withstand
All because He's the great God-Man!

That's my King!

They spit on Him in vile disgrace
And beat Him on the back and face
Blinded Him and mocked debase
All we deserve, He took our place
And died for every tongue and race
Then rose to save us all by grace
So by faith all Him embrace
Your every sin He will erase
Of your evil there's no trace
And all your sadness soon replace
The bitter guilt that you retrace
"NO CONDEMNATION!" is your case
With mercy He'll forever chase
Christ is all! - the joy Place!

That's my King!  That's my King!

"That's My King!" Who Was Stripped Down Naked Bare And Men Would Spit And Mock And Glare For Our Great Shame He'd Take And Wear Then Rise To Righteousness Declare And Give Us Clothes That End Despair With Him There's None Who Can Compare!

Disciples must leave all behind
To follow Christ as He designed
He's the greatest of mankind
To human flesh He's been assigned
He raised the dead and healed the blind
The devil strong man He would bind
But this young man was not inclined
To follow when the path's defined
With suffering and life unkind
He fled from Christ – left all behind
To get away and safety find
But Jesus stood – the soldiers bind
And lead Him off to die maligned
They beat and spit and mock combined
And treat Him like the wheat to grind
But He rose and death confined
Now death is dead to hell consigned
Jesus lives to save mankind
He left our sin and shame behind
So to Him run – salvation find
He is worthy and enshrined
As the greatest heart and mind
Leave all behind in Him you'll find all joy, all peace, all love combined!

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

Nakedness means sin and shame
That, in Adam we became
He ate the fruit and in sin came
The world would never be the same
He fled from God for his own fame
God cut him off with sword aflame
But God would save for His great name
To cover man was His new aim
He gave a hint with skins of game
But man would need a better claim
A God-Man Savior not so tame
He lived and died and overcame
Took upon Him all our blame
His body they'd maim and try to tame
But you can't tame the greatest name
He conquered death to life reclaim
And now we'll never be the same
He covers us and takes our shame
We're clothed in righteous robes acclaim
His righteousness in Him became
Over us God does exclaim:
“My righteous children I will claim!”
We'll give all honor to His name
And when poor sinners come in shame
Deep love for them will be our aim!

That's my King!  That's my King!

"That's My King!" Who With A Kiss Was Sore Betrayed All Friends Would Flee And Give No Aid But He Our God-Man Can't Be Swayed He Died And In The Tomb Was Laid He Did God's Will Just As He Prayed Then Rose Again Our Debts Been Paid!

To Jesus Judas was a close friend; This made his sin to deep offend; One He chose and did commend; To do miracles and preach He'd send; The money bags he did attend; And figure how to money spend; Christ's marvelous life He did attend; But Judas' life was all pretend; To wash his feet Christ did descend; How he betrayed none comprehend! To the cross our LORD he'd send; His perfect life for us expend; But rise above all death ascend; To us and all His grace extend; And give us joy to transcend; For of all pleasure He's the end!
Would you sell Jesus for anything in all creation? A food or money donation? Fornication or a sex temptation? Give Him up for all manner of drug sensation? Or a never ending beach vacation? Would you leave Him for a marriage relation or job elevation; All these sales end in condemnation, but He wants your salvation through propitiation He took your damnation and rose to highest station to be your preoccupation and be your liberation from all profanation and sin degradation!

That's my King!  Do you know Him?!

He was betrayed with a kiss so you could have bliss and His presence never miss but He'll give you this – the Christ Who is bliss!
He's the great I AM; The sacrificial Lamb; And when He said “I AM” to the floor they'd slam!
Christ's Kingdom will spread not by cutting off a head but by preaching and love and mercy instead; See everyone fled His blood He shed and was left for dead but rose to shred the enemies dread captivity captive He lead He did all He said; His people He'll wed and give us joy and pleasure ahead!
All the way from the highest throne He was left alone forsaken on His own like a stone in the ocean thrown cut and whipped to the bone with terrible groan prayer to His Father flown but His Son He'd disown He died with a moan His suffering we've never known but He did atone for all the ways we've blown the holy life He's shown so by Him we could be fully known; Totally loved and never disowned to give Him the glory on His throne!

That's my King!  That's my King!
