Artist: Johnny Cash Album: The Johnny Cash Family Christmas (1972) Title: King Of Love (all)
Lyrics King Of Love (all)Jesus came there he lay in a manger of hay
The angels sang the shepherds came they knew not what the future held
They only knew they were compelled from up above a baby boy the king of love
He was a child he was the son
He was a man among men
He was a prince he was divine
He was the king of love
Jesus grew he was a child he traveled far in distant lands
His earthly parents by the hand they missed him now he did not hide
He told them I must confide I was at my father's side
He was a child he was the son
He was a man among men
He was a prince he was divine
He was the king of love
Jesus died the world was dark
Not a sound was there to hark
The breath was gone he hung his head
But wait let us rejoice
(For he has risen from the dead)
He was a child he was the son
He was a man among men
He was a prince he was divine
He was the king of love |
