"That's My King!" Who's The Word Exalted Above All Things, The King Above All Kings, And The Source From Which All Joy And True Life Springs!

God's greatest passion is for the fame of His name; Exalting this above all is His number one aim; Our joy in Him and this aim are the same, for as our delight in Him burns with white-hot flame; His value is shown through our praise and acclaim; We get the joy, and He gets the fame; And the number one place God exalted His name was when the Word made flesh our sin became; "Exalt Your Son to Exalt You!" His prayer came; On that cross He was made sin to take our blame, and rose from the dead to end our shame; This Word in the flesh we must proclaim, for He's exalted this Word above His name so that you will never be the same!
All the glory God's names contain, He sent His Son to make them plain; This Word o'er all it will attain; Of all attractions He's the main, for He's the Word we've read was slain; Who took away our guilty stain; And rose alive on high to reign; Through His most wretched pain we gain; The joyful life in God's domain!

That's My King!  Do you know Him?!

I AM, LORD, God, and Elohim; The sovereign God Whose names redeem; Honor, glory, love extreme; Beauty, strength, and might their theme; The self-sufficient God they scream; The Living Word came in this stream; The Christ our God revealed supreme; O'er all things the crème de la crème; Makes His Father's glory gleam; Fulfills the perfect ordained scheme; And far surpasses your greatest dream!
He's King of kings – first and the last; Who saves from all your sin and past; O'er all He's in another class; A sovereign, weighty glory mass; His love and mercy are so vast, our knowledge they, like Him, surpass!
We meet Him in the written Word; There pursue Him undeterred; In your Bible His Words are heard; Go there to get your heart so stirred; Neglecting this is clear absurd; Above all else it's Him preferred; Because to Him your sin conferred; God's wrath on Him judgment incurred; His righteousness to us transferred; And raised Him up on the day third; He's life and joy – the Living Word!

That's my King!  That's my King!
