With The King

Title: With The King
Materials: Original Song by Peter Tonna
Description: No matter where you are in life you can call on Jesus, the king of kings. You could be in the lowest pit and darkest place of your life right now and think you’re not worthy to call on Jesus’ name, but there’s no pit so deep that Jesus can’t reach and no place so dark that Jesus can’t light up. So it doesn’t matter where you are in life, call on Jesus and he will come to you where you are at. He will lift you up from your ‘poor’ state and you’ll became an heir of his kingdom, just like royalty.

WITH THE KING

VERSE
Jesus I’m not worthy to sit at your table
Not even fit to eat the scraps on the floor
Do I dare look up feel the burn of condemnation
Of a sinful man yearning for more

But you came so I’d know love
Gave your life so it’s enough
Shed your blood to cover all my sins

CHORUS

I was a pauper
And you came to save
This shackled slave
Once a peasant
Now got royal blood
Flowing through my veins
With open arms you let me in
Now I’m with the king

VERSE
You lift me from the ground and robbed me with peace
Your love surrounds me like a shield beneath your wings
Oh I will stand tall walk boldly in your presence
As darkness flees in the glory of the king

I don’t fear because I know
You’re with me where I go
And nothing dare stand against you

CHORUS

I was a pauper
And you came to save
This shackled slave
Once a peasant
Now got royal blood
Flowing through my veins
With open arms you let me in
Now I’m with the king

BRIDGE
Oh Jesus, my savior
I don’t doubt my place in you
Walking side by side with my king
Most sovereign, redeemer
I give my all to you
So I might have everything
With my king

CHORUS

I was a pauper
And you came to save
This shackled slave
Once a peasant
Now got royal blood
Flowing through my veins
With open arms you let me in
Now I’m with the king
