The King on His Throne

The babe in the manger
the man on the cross
the King on His throne
watching over us

The Word Made Flesh
the Messiah, the Savior
all of these Christ
who died for our sins

God gave himself
coming as the Christ-child
redeeming us all
by the blood of the lamb

The willing servant
loving all of us
giving himself
that we may live with him

This is the Savior we wait for
hopeful, expectant
the steadfast love
of Almighty God

Living within us
Spirit indwelling
needing to be shared
to the ends of the earth

The treasure we carry
in the humble clay jars
our lives a blessing
needing to be shared

We are the servants
the followers of Jesus
we are to offer
hope for the world
