3. The Servant King

Lyrics

Verse 1
Before the dawn of all creation,
The Word was God, the Son was near;
But love would choose a lowly station,
To walk the dust and dry the tear.

Verse 2
He set aside the crown of heaven,
Took on the frailty of our frame;
The Mighty One became a servant,
Obedient even to a cross of shame.

Chorus
So we follow where He leads,
Lay down pride and selfish needs.
Every heart and voice will sing—
Jesus is the Servant King.
Servant King.

Verse 3
The Father raised Him high in glory,
Gave Him the Name above all names;
Every knee will bow before Him,
Every tongue His Lordship claim.

Verse 4
Now the church He calls together,
One in heart and one in mind;
To show His love to one another,
The humble way of Christ to find.

Chorus
So we follow where He leads,
Lay down pride and selfish needs.
Every heart and voice will sing—
Jesus is the Servant King.

So we follow where He leads,
Lay down pride and selfish needs.
Every heart and voice will sing—
Jesus is the Servant King.
Servant King.

Outro
Let the same mind dwell within us,
That was found in Christ the Son;
Till the day He stands among us,
And His holy work is done.
