...His divine power has granted to us everything pertaining to life and godliness,

 through the true knowledge of Him who called us...II Peter 1:3

 

 

JESUS OUR PROPHET, PRIEST AND KING

 

Words and music by Mary Rose Jensen

 

How could the Father tell of His love

When our hearts refused to hear?

In the body of man, God spoke His Word.

Jesus our Prophet makes it clear.

 

How could the Father welcome us home

When we were so full of sin?

In the body of man, God’s Son was killed

Jesus our Priest now brings us in.

 

How could the Father rule over death

When we were condemned to die?

In the body of man, Christ rose again.

Jesus our King now reigns on high.

 

How could we ask for anything more

When God gives us everything?

We have all we could need when we have Christ

Jesus our Prophet, Priest and King.
