Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

A king never says I am weak
I'll never say I am poor
And I'll never say
That l am blind
Because of what God has done

A king never carried hatred
They only walk in love
And they don't know
Impossible through Christ

Where lies the strength of a king
My strength and life is in God
Spending time with the father
My heart is after him

My heart only beats love love love
My thoughts are all about you
Hear my steps walking in victory
That's the heart of a king

A king says come oh child
Come get all that you need

So you can find that's my heart right there you
I'll take care of you in gentleness
My heart is set on you oh
You are my awe
And I'll be there to love on you
Thus says the lord

My strength and life is in God
Spending time with the father
My heart is after him

A true king should always portray strength, even in the midst of adversity, and that strength should come from God. Kings should not hold on to hatred, but rather walk in love, and understand that nothing is impossible through Christ.


The chorus of the song talks about finding strength in God, spending time with him, and walking in victory. The heart of a king is one that only beats with love, and their thoughts should only be about God.
