Jesus is the Incarnation
The God on earth Visitation
The God-Man Summation without separation
Savior of every nation
The "all-of-life" Foundation
Without Whom there's no salvation
Who saves from condemnation
And is worthy of our most faithful dedication, infinite admiration, and eternal appreciation!
That's my King!
Through the virgin birth
He came down to earth
He fills with joy and mirth
By granting rebirth
And He Himself is infinite worth!
He's truly God and truly man
According to God's perfect plan
He saves sinners from every tribe and clan
His mercy has no bounds or span
From Bhutan to Japan
Kazakhstan to Sudan, or Iran
He's the only saving Man
Who's also the God Who can!
That's my King!
He humbled Himself to be born in a manger
Though all around He was surrounded by danger
To the likeness of sinful flesh He's no longer a stranger
But lived and died to be the sin for righteousness Exchanger
He rose up from the grave to be the only great world Changer
He'll live in you to be your whole life's Rearranger!
Hark the herald angels sing
Glory to the newborn King
Who comes with healing in His wing
All by Himself He's the greatest Thing
He's the everlasting Spring
Who alone can make your heart ring
To you salvation He will bring
If to Him by faith alone you'll cling!
That's my King! Do you know Him?!
Let every heart prepare Him room
He's God Who's come from the virgin's womb
All sin and death He will consume
He saves from wrath and judgment doom
He died on Friday – there was gloom
But Sunday He rose up from the tomb
Now He is our everlasting Groom!
That's my King! I wonder if you know Him today?!
For unto us a Child is born
Of true salvation, He's the Horn
He'll make His people cease to mourn
Joy to the world He will adorn
He came to save from sin and porn
By being Kinged with crown of thorn
In His body sins were borne
On that cross He was forlorn
He took on all our sin and scorn
At His death the curtain's torn
Yet He rose just as was sworn
So those who trust could be reborn!
That's my King!
Joy to the earth, the Savior reigns
He came to save from all our pains
From every sin He'll break those chains
If you'll seek to die like grains
Then you'll find your fruit remains
In holiness you'll make great gains!
He came to make His blessings flow
Far as the curse is found below
Though your sins are red you know
He died to make them white as snow
He took upon Himself your woe
And now your clean from head to toe
Behind His back your sins He'll throw
Just trust in Him, nothing you owe
In your heart good things He'll sow
Through His Spirit you will grow!
That's my King! I wonder if you know Him today?!
He shall save His people from their sins
That's were Matthew starts and ends
Trust in Him - your life begins
He's the Warrior-King Who always wins
And makes His enemies God's friends!
Immanuel is His glorious name
He's "God with us!" we must proclaim
In the manger our weakness He became
Go tell it on the mountain without any shame
May this good news set our world aflame
On that cross He took our blame
Forever banished all our shame
And rose from the grave all death to tame
The world will never be the same
Sadness for joy He'll reclaim
For the glorious fame of His beautiful name!
That's my King! That's my King!
Will you trust Jesus Christ as your King today?!
