King of Kings

1.  Feeling lost and lonely;

Somewhere I went wrong.

How I wish I could start again –

But it’s been so long.

Someone to forgive me

Takes me by the hand,

Stooping down to lift me up and

Helping me to stand.

 

Chorus

And I can feel the love tonight –

He is very near.

Reaching out to the One who died for me

Takes away my fear.

And I can feel the love tonight.

Lift your voice and sing!

For the one with His arms around me

Is the King of kings!

 

2.  When I’m tired and hurting;

Not a friend in sight;

Scared by thoughts that possess my mind;

Frightened of the night;

Then I turn to Someone

Who will see me through:

Nothing else in the world is better

Than to be with You.

 

And I can feel the love tonight –

He is very near.

Reaching out to the One who died for me

Takes away my fear.

And I can feel the love tonight.

Lift your voice and sing!

For the one with His arms around me

Is the King of kings!

 

For the one with his arms around me

Is the King of kings!
