Fortunate They Lyrics

The King of Life has come to reside

Fortunate they who know everything inside

He led them out from slavery

And from a place of savagery

He parted the waters, they crossed the sea dry

He fed them with food from the sky

So many days and in so many ways

The activities of life are carried out by slaves

They call for help, He commissions a deliverer

Whom He empowers to break every fetter

The King of Life has come to reside

They are fortunate they know everything inside

You feed your flock from start to end

By men who can themselves offend

Even if they should think that it comes from them

The power you give, they cannot stem

You amaze me

That you have simply chosen me

This gift you have given so eloquently

Is by default a ministry

The King of Life has come to reside

Fortunate they who know everything inside

You chose the things of low estate

To nullify the things that seem great

No one shall stand exalted on high

Unless they pass through a needle's eye

The gifts that you have given men

Do benefit others but also them

So that they should ever be on their guard

For they already have their reward

The King of Life has come to reside

Fortunate they who know everything inside
