The Lord is King

Verse 1
God of all the earth
Perfect Son of man
Love that never turns
Come and heal our land
Lord we need you to move
In our midst as we sing

Hallelujah the Lord is King
All our praises to you we bring
Humbly ruling with power
Yet by grace you redeem
Hallelujah the Lord is King

Verse 2
Like a helpless Lamb
That has gone astray
We have chased our plans
Lord please change our ways
So that everyone knows
It’s for you that we sing

Verse 3
Lord who gives each day
Give us eyes to see
That your perfect way
Might direct our feet
Lord we long for the world
To join in as we sing

Written by: Busbee

I first heard this song when in December 2004, I visited the church of which Busbee is a part.

It resonates deeply with so much of my heart cry to be part of a people who, belonging to a humble king, live in and long for his world to be a part of this people too…
