Now Samuel went to Bethlehem to see Jesse's sons
To find a new king for the people, the anointed one
But the youngest son was tending to his sheep on the land
And the Lord declared on David he would lay his hand
And the Lord said David's house would rule for ever more
But the people were divided and forsook the law
And the king of Babylon captured the land by the sword
And he carried off the treasures of the house of the Lord
King of Judah, King of Judah
King of Judah, King of Judah
Now Daniel entered service in the court of the King
And he prophesized the judgments he would reap for his sin
And the king dreamed of an idol made of iron and clay
Destroyed completely by a mountain that would last for an age
And he interpreted the writing on the wall at the feast
And they threw him to the lions but he ruled over the beasts
In his vision he saw coming down with clouds from the sky
One like a son of man whose kingdom will never die
King of Judah, King of Judah
King of Judah, King of Judah
And the beast with seven heads came and devoured the land
But the rod of Jesse grew and was the Passover lamb
And he taught them to show mercy to those on Judah's shore
Doing good unto your neighbour is the whole of the law
And they nailed Him to a tree and Satan thought he had won
But He took all of our sins and then the work was done
And He is coming back again to judge the living and dead
For as in Adam all men die, in Christ have new life instead
King of Judah, King of Kings
King of Judah, King of Kings
King of Kings [x4]
