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
The ultimate victory, forever He sustains
From the ballroom to the gutter (gutter)
Hear the Heavens ring (ah)
Jesus is King

Jesus is King (can't undo it)
No disaster can shake it (won't shake it)
No power in hell, no scheme of man can ever, ever take it
He's the Alpha, Omega, the beginning and the end
On His word, my whole world and my future does depend
So (crown Him), crown Him in this place (place)
Let His glory fill the space (Lord is)
Jesus (Jesus is)

Who's the ruler of my heart? (Jesus is)
Who can break the chains apart? (Jesus, yeah)
Who holds the final authority? (Jesus, yeah)
From now to eternity (Jesus)

Jesus is King (King)
Let every heart sing (hallelu-)
Let it echo in the streets, let the declaration ring (ring)
(Over every system, tongue)
Over every earthly thing (over everything)

Doubt may come, but He reigns
Fear may shout, but He claims (He claims)
The ultimate victory, forever He sustains (He holds it all)
From the ballroom to the gutter
Hear the Heavens ring (He is)
Jesus is King
