One King Holds the Hope of the World

One King

(Written by Jeff Borders, Gayla Borders, Lowell Alexander )


Kings of earth on a course unknown
Bearing gifts from afar
Hoping praying
Following yonder star


Silhouette of a caravan
Painted against the sky
Wise men searching
For the holy child


(chorus)


One king held the frankincense
One king held the myrrh
One king held the purest gold
One King held the hope of the world


A star hangs over bethlehem
A journey ends in the night
Three kings trembling
Behold the glorious sight

Heaven's treasure emmanuel

Drawing men to bow down

Tiny baby born to wear a crown

One king held the frankincense

One king held the myrrh
One king held the purest gold
One King held the hope of the world

And that one King still holds the Hope of the world.  He is the Hope of the world!  Our eternal Hope and we would be so lost without Him.

Merry Christmas!
