King Of Kings
Leviticus Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I wanna sing, sing a song to my Lord,
I wanna praise You the Lord of Lords,
You are the King, You are the master of life,
You are the sun in my heart, and You'll always be.

I wanna show,
I wanna stand up,
I wanna scream,

King of Kings.

You give the power I need,
and a place in the sun,
You give healing to my wounds,
I'm saved and free,
You bear me when I'm down,
You forgive my sins,
King of freedom is your holy name.

The King wants to show the way,
the only way, the only truth,
The King wants to fight for us,
cause He has the power, He is the power.

I lift my hands in prayer for the world,
my dearest wish is that you'll be saved,
my dearest wish is that you'll be saved,
and that the faith of Christians gonna be action,
I pray for unified people where love grows.
I thank You Lord for every honest heart,
You say everyone who search is gonna find,

I thank You for taking care of your children,
You take care of every little honest heart.

Leviticus was legit - their first two albums were ahead of their time, lyrically and musically! They helped me survive the 80's as a Christian that fell into a lot of partying, lol. Praise God for His grace, I hope all of the bandmates are still walking with the Lord.
