Alleluia To The King

Oh little baby lying in a manger
Wrapped so tightly to all life's misery.
Joseph and Mary, do you realize
That your baby is the newborn King?
The angels sang:

Alleluia To The King.
Alleluia they did sing.
He is Lord of everything.
This is your newborn king.

As all gathered round him,
Did they understand
How very holy the bundle to they bow
Cared for creation
Now amidst the animals
Did they realize
The king to whom they bowed?
What they sang:

Alleluia To The King.
Alleluia they did sing.
He is Lord of everything.
This is your newborn king.

Oh precious Jesus
Bare upon a dying cross
Taking all our sins for us
And all life's misery
He's come to save
He's not a babe
He's come to save
He's not a babe
He's come to save
He's come to save
So that all may say one day,

"Alleluia To The King.
Alleluia we will sing.
You are Lord of everything.
Jesus you are the King.
Alleluia To The King.
Alleluia we will sing.
You are Lord of everything.
Jesus you are my King.
Yes, this is your newborn king.
This is your newborn king."
