THERE IS A KING

By Chuck Spangler

Grace Memorial Parishioner 

This first cut (“acoustic”) is a rare acoustic recording by Elevation Worship, led by Elevation Worship's lead singer, Chris Brown.  No heavy metal band backup…no throngs of worshippers listening…no light show…just a simple, pure message.
The second cut (“worship version”) features Brandon Lake as lead with Elevation Worship.  A somewhat different interpretation of a moving message.

Cut: “There Is A King”
Artist: Elevation Worship
CD/Album: Graves Into Gardens

​There is a King seated amongst us. Let every heart receive Him now.
Where there is praise, He will inhabit, and there will be grace and mercy all around.
 
Every burden will be lifted in His presence.
Every trophy will be laid down at His feet.
 
There is a name that reigns above all others:  Jesus Christ, the King above all kings.
 
Unto the Lamb honor and glory.  Worthy is He who overcame.
Buried in shame, risen in power.  He is alive and the stone is rolled away.
 
All our worship will belong to Him forever. 
Death is conquered and our Savior holds the keys.
There is a name that reigns above all others:  Jesus Christ, the King above all kings.
 
It won’t be long, we will behold Him. 
And every tear He’ll wipe away.
We’ll be at home, the war will be over.  Soon we will meet our Saviour face to face.
 
And every burden will be lifted in His presence.
Every trophy will be laid down at His feet.
There is a name that reigns above all others:  Jesus Christ, the King above all kings.
 
And all our worship will belong to You forever.
Holy, holy, for all eternity.
 
Yours is the name that reigns above all others:
Jesus Christ, the King above all kings.
Jesus Christ, the King above all kings.
