HOW DID JESUS BECOME OUR KING
WAS IT BY AN ELECTION.
NO, NOT BY ANY SUCH A THING
IT WAS BY RESURRECTION.

BY THE POWER OF YOUR SONSHIP
YOU CONQUERED DEATH ONCE FOR ALL.
LET US BOW IN AWESOME WORSHIP
TO THIS ONE NOW LORD OF ALL.

II
THE LAST ENEMY HE BATTERED
LEAVING HIM A WOUNDED FOE.
ALL WE FEARED HE NOW HAS SHATTERED
THAT IS WHY WE LOVE HIM SO.

PRAISE THE LIVING LORD OF WONDER
FOR HIS MIGHTY VICTORY.
DEATH NOR HELL CAN NEVER SUNDER
ME FROM HIM NOR HIM FROM ME.

III
NOW HOPE IS EVER SECURE
IN OUR WONDROUS LIVING LORD.
NOW LIFE'S TRIALS WE CAN ENDURE
AS WE REST UPON HIS WORD.

JESUS, JESUS NOW WE LOVE YOU
HOW WE PRAISE YOU HOLY NAME.
EVERLASTING HONOR'S YOUR DUE
HOW WE THANK YOU THAT YOU CAME.

IV
YOU GAVE US LIFE THAT HAS NO END
YOU GIVE ABUNDANT LIFE NOW.
THAT IS WHY EVERY KNEE WILL BEND
AND ALL WILL BEFORE THEE BOW.

YOU ARE LORD AND KING OF ALL KINGS
REIGNING OVER ALL ON HIGH.
WE JOIN ANGELS VOICES WHICH SING
NOTHING YOU LOVE E'ER WILL DIE.
