Jesus Is King

Hm, ooh-ooh-ooh

Hm, ooh-ooh-ooh

Hm, ooh-ooh-ooh

Jesus is King

When the world feel like it's spinning on a shaky axis

And the headlines keep screaming out a new kind of madness

When the ground beneath my feet starts to crack and give way

I remember a Kingdom that's not of this day, oh no

They might wear their crowns of power (power)

Their temporary fame (power)

But every earthly ruler answers to a higher name (power)

My hope's not in a ballot (power)

My peace ain't in a throne (power)

My future's in the hands of the One who's over every zone

Let every other voice just fade into the background

No, it's 'cause Jesus is King (King)

Let every heart sing (King)

Let it echo in the streets

Let the declaration ring

Over every system, over every earthly thing

Jesus is King (King)

Doubt may come, but He reigns

Fear may shout, but He claims

The ultimate victory, forever He sustains

From the ballroom to the gutter (gutter)

Hear the Heavens ring (hey, ring)

Jesus is King

He don't rule from a distance, from some cold marble sea

He reigns right here in my heart, makes my sorrows retreat

His law is perfect love, and His justice is true grace

And every tribe and nation will one day see His face

Yes, they will

So let them build their empires on a shift and sinking sand

I'm a citizen of glory in a forever-standing land

My hope's not in a ballot (no)

My peace ain't in a throne (no)

My future's in the hands of the One who's over every zone

Let every other voice just fade into the background

No, 'cause Jesus is King (King)

Let every heart sing (sing)

Let it echo in the street

Let the declaration ring

Over every system (yeah), over every earthly thing

Jesus is King (King)

Doubt may come, but He reigns

Fear may shout, but He claims
