To a world full of turmoil and strife?
To a people not worthy to live
But willing to die,
Set in their own ways, and turning God’s word into a lie
Hard-headed, sottish, hateful and despised?
To look down to see his creation
I wonder, did he cry?
Who would send a king
Full of love — He came from above,
Said the angel to the women on earth,
You would bear a son
And you will name him Jesus at birth.
Not revealed to a stranger
But to the shepherds who came to a manger
And saw him first,
Raised in iniquity,
Bruised for our transgressions.
The Father,
The Son,
The Holy Ghost.
God in three persons
Healed the sick, and made the blind see,
Made the lame walk, so all could be free,
Rejected, afflicted, and denied by his own
But he still offered heaven, to be a blessing and your new home.
Sentenced to death by Rome,
On the cross he was not alone
Our burdens he bore
And your sins he washed away.
In the tomb, where he once laid
He rose in three days, just like he said.
I wonder, was it the blood
My savior shed?
For the Bible speaks of the ways that I must be led:
Just believe every word that I have read
And on his name, that is what he said.
For He is coming back again
In a blinking of an eye
And I will be caught up with him
And I won’t have to die,
For He is God Almighty,
The beginning and the end,
The king of kings.
Now you tell me who would
Send a king.
