Lyrics
JESUS, BORN A KING
Words and Music by Mark S. Crocker
VS 1 One starry night so
long ago,
Just like the prophets
had foretold,
A babe was born,
so meek and mild;
A light to all
who saw Him smile,
They saw Him smile.
This royal babe from
heaven's throne,
Would make the world
His very own.
His precious face
looked to the skies,
To see His Father's
loving eyes,
God's loving eyes.
CH Jesus, born a King,
Savior, to You we
sing.
Gift from God above,
Master and Lord of
love.
VS 2 The sky was filled
with angel choirs
That sang the praise
of God's desires.
The baby breaths
that Jesus drew
Were songs of praise
the angels knew,
The angels knew.
CH Jesus, born a King,
Savior, to You we
sing.
Gift from God above,
Master and Lord of
love.
BR Shepherds that
listened to the
angels rose up;
They came to see the
tiny Lord Whom
angels spoke of.
The Wisemen with their
gifts would come to
see Him close up.
To celebrate His birth
with all the earth
and those of heaven!
VS 3 The lowly cattle in
that place
Could sense that God,
with all His grace,
Had sent His only son
to earth
To have a simple
humble birth,
A humble birth.
CH Jesus, born a King,
Savior, to You we
sing.
Gift from God above,
Master and Lord of
love.
Master and Lord of
love.
