Rhesa started this off with a midi file. Paul worked on the lyrics a while then decided to pull in Larry and I. I wrote additional music for the bridge. - Elton, September 9, 2002



Lyrics

(Introduction)

(Verse 1)
Singing Your praises
Our hearts filled with joy
Lifting our song to the sky.
In awe of Your glory,
Inspired by Your love
We fall down before You and cry:

(Chorus)
Jesus, Master and King
Savior, Lord of everything
Jesus, our hearts You indwell
Chosen One, King of Israel!

(Verse 2)
You rule in our hearts
And deliver from sin;
We are the sheep of Your fold,
Redeemed by Your mercy
As children of grace,
Inheriting riches untold!

(Repeat Chorus 2 times)
Jesus, Master and King
Savior, Lord of everything
Jesus, our hearts You indwell
Chosen One, King of Israel!

(Piano and guitar solo)

(Bridge)
Proclaiming Your glory and grace evermore,
We sing "Hallelujah!"
Triumphant, You enter the Gate with the sound of our praise.
To honor Your majesty, Almighty Lord,
We sing "Hallelujah!"
In You is life everlasting, O Ancient of Days!
Hear our praise...

(Repeat chorus 2 times)
Jesus, Master and King
Savior, Lord of everything
Jesus, our hearts You indwell
Chosen One, King of Israel!

(Ending)
Jesus, Master and King
Savior, Lord of everything
King of Israel!

Debbie Washington2007-03-11I really love this song "King of Israel". A very happy sounding song a up beat song. This song needs to be played more. I needed to hear a song about the King of Israel in a happy up beat.
