The King

The King

They said they wanted a king

Samuel argued that’s really not the right thing 

But persistence of the will is strong

And so the Father of All allowed this thing

It wasn’t long before the trial failed

Israel split the people by outsiders assailed 

Centuries came and went the rulers now all gone 

Then one morn in a stable Jesus was born He Who is truly the One

Born to them The King they longed and hoped for 

Known He was as Healer Teacher Friend and more

He showed the Pharisees and rulers of the day

Miracles of healing and sin removed and He taught them how to pray

But blind were most and that’s why He’d arrived 

To rid the world of death and give hope for which He’d be sacrificed 

Our savior born in a manger of hay

The king of Kings He Who is the Light The Truth and The Way

Offering and teaching to all that to live happily forever 

One must follow Him on the path paved with hard work kindness sacrifice and prayer 

Amen
