The King, Pt. One

Who is this babe in a manger?
Why do the shepherds bow down?
Is this the one who was promised?
Why does a king have no crown?

This is the child born of Mary
Placed with no pomp on the ground
Is this the one who would save us
Here that the shepherds surround?

All the angels sing
Behold your King

Come see the one they call Jesus
Here with the poor and the lame
Eats at the table with sinners
Calls the forgotten by name

Come and behold He is wearing
Thorns they had placed on His brow
Here was our hope of a savior
Finally the king has a crown

And the people weep
Behold our king

Come see the one they call Jesus
Bring myrrh and oil for the grave
Breathe in the death of our savior
He with all power to save

Yes, but the tomb could not hold Him
Lord over all even death
Come and behold, for the Savior
Was this little babe bound for death

Come and behold our King
Lord over all, sent as a babe
Down from heaven to us
Born in a manger, died on a cross
What kind of king is this?
Crown Him the Lord of lords
What kind of love is this?
Come and behold our God
