Kings Don't (I Got a King) Lyrics

Kings don't ride donkeys into town,

With palm branches and people's cloaks on the ground

They enter with their entourage, the spoils of conquest for their victory march

Kings don't go washing your dirty feet - caked on soil from walking dusty streets

The great unwashed can't get in the door, no tracking mud on the royal floor

I got a King who knows me, His love he always shows me

He rode that donkey, washed those feet. This work he started he will complete

King Jesus! King Jesus!

Kings don't take walks on choppy seas, then command the wind and waves to cease

On windy days they just stay docked, wine and dine on the royal yacht

Kings don't lay their lives down for enemies, bleeding out as sin's one remedy

They ship their armies off to war, into the slaughter, what's a soldier for?

I got a King who saved me, rescued and then remade me

He walked on water, died for my sins, will never leave me whatever place I'm in

King Jesus! King Jesus!

Kings don't rise up from the dead, on the third day, alive just like they said

They fall from power when they die, their tombs moss over where they lie

I got a King who's living, new life he's always giving

He rose in power, walked outa that grave and lives to restore all he came to save

King Jesus! King Jesus!
