Born to be King

I heard the news of a baby born to be King
I heard them say He would rule over everything
A shing bright star would lead the way
Right to the crib where the baby would lay
A cradle of straw was the place for His birth
For this Saviour of all, Creator of the Universe

Chorus 1
All Heaven declares Christ Jesus the King
Now born to mankind, come let us sing
Emmanuel, Emmanuel, all hail Emmanuel
Your destiny is our victory, Noel, Noel
We celebrate Jesus the King

I heard the news that this Saviour was born
To serve mankind, freely give of His life
His days would be short, He'd be crucified
His mother with tears would gaze into His eyes
And watch Him die, an innocent man
His destiny was Salvations plan

Chorus 2
All Heaven declares Christ Jesus the King
Who lived to die to free us from sin
Emmanuel, Emmanuel, all hail Emmanuel
Your destiny is our victory, Noel, Noel
We celebrate Jesus the King

Bridge
Oh-Oh-Oh Hallelujah (x2)
You are Alpha and Omega the beginning and the end (yeah)
You will reign forever, Amen, Amen
