That’s
My King!!!
My King
was born King. The Bible says He’s a Seven Way King. He’s the King of the Jews
– that’s a racial King. He’s the King of Israel – that’s a National King. He’s
the King of righteousness. He’s the King of the ages. He’s the King of Heaven.
He’s the King of glory. He’s the King of kings and He is the Lord of lords.
Now that’s my King!
Well I wonder if you know Him.
Do you know Him? Don’t try to mislead me. Do you know my King? David said the
Heavens declare the glory of God and the firmament show His handiwork. My King
is the only one whom there are no means or measure to define His limitless
love. No far seeing telescope can bring into visibility the coastline of His
shore of supplies. No barriers can hinder Him from pouring out His blessing.
Well, well, He’s enduringly strong. He’s entirely sincere. He’s eternally
steadfast. He’s immortally graceful. He’s imperially powerful. He’s impartially
merciful. That’s my King!
He’s God’s Son. He’s the
sinner’s saviour. He’s the centerpiece of civilization. He stands alone in
Himself. He’s august. He’s unique. He’s unparalleled. He’s unprecedented. He’s
supreme. He’s pre-eminent. Well, He’s the loftiest idea in literature. He’s the
highest personality in philosophy. He’s the supreme problem in high criticism. He’s
the fundamental doctrine of proved theology. He’s the carnal necessity of
spiritual religion. That’s
my King!
He’s the miracle of the age.
He’s the superlative of everything good that you choose to call Him. Well, He’s
the only one able to supply all of our needs simultaneously. He supplies
strength for the weak. He’s available for the tempted and the tried. He
sympathizes and He saves. He’s a strong God and He guides. He heals the sick.
He cleanses the lepers. He forgives sinners. He discharged debtors. He delivers
the captives. He defends the feeble. He blesses the young. He serves the
unfortunate. He regards the aged. He rewards the diligent and He beautifies the
meek. Do you know Him?
Well, my King is the key of
knowledge. He’s the wellspring of wisdom. He’s the doorway of deliverance. He’s
the pathway of peace. He’s the roadway of righteousness. He’s the highway of
holiness. He’s the gateway of glory. He’s the Master of the mighty. He’s the
captain of the conquerors. He’s the head of the heroes. He’s the leader of the
legislatures. He’s the overseer of the overcomers. He’s the Governor of
governors. He’s the Prince of princes. He’s the King of kings and He’s the Lord
of lords. That’s my King!
Yeah! Yeah! That’s my King! My
King! Yeah! His office is manifold. His promise is sure. His light is
matchless. His goodness is limitless. His mercy is everlasting. His love never
changes. His Word is enough. His grace is sufficient. His reign is righteous.
His yoke is easy and His burden is light. Well, I wish I could describe Him to
you, but He’s indescribable. He’s indescribable. Yes! He’s incomprehensible.
He’s invincible. He’s irresistible. I’m coming to tell you, the heavens of
heavens cannot contain Him, let alone a man explaining Him. You can’t get Him out
of your mind. You can’t get Him off of your hands. You can’t outlive Him and
you can’t live without Him. Well, Pharisees couldn’t stand Him, but they found
out they couldn’t stop Him. Pilate couldn’t find any fault in Him. The
witnesses couldn’t get their testimonies to agree. Herod couldn’t kill Him.
Death couldn’t handle Him and the grave couldn’t hold Him.
That’s my King!
Yeah! He always has been and He
always will be. I’m talking about He had no predecessor and He’ll have no
successor. There was nobody before Him and there’ll be nobody after Him. You
can’t impeach Him and He’s not going to resign. That’s my King! That’s my King! Thine is the kingdom and the
power and the glory. Well, all the power belongs to my King. We’re around here
talking about black power and white power and green power, but it’s God’s
power. Thine is the power. Yeah! And the glory... We
try to get prestige and honour and glory for ourselves, but the glory is all
His. Yes! Thine is the Kingdom and the power and glory, forever and ever and
ever and ever. How long is that? And ever and ever and ever and ever... And
when you get through with all of the forevers, then, Amen!
