Child-Like Heart

The King Of Kings

I heard them say the king of kings

Was walking down the path

I looked to see His royal robes

Or touch His holy staff

I did not hear the songs of praise

Nor see the royal dance

The trumpets didn’t ring aloud

With pomp or circumstance

Instead I saw the low and meek

A beaten broken man

No warrior of great renown

He looked more like a lamb

He had a cross upon His back

He wore a thorny crown

He looked more like a criminal

The world had beaten down

But as I watched Him walk this path

I gazed upon His face

And as the crowd scoffed at His name

He covered me with grace

For in this man a sacrifice

Was made to save my soul

His monarchy was dipped in blood

So I could be made whole

And now I know true royalty

Much more than anything

This was the noble prince of peace

He is the king of kings
