The King

The earth is pure

And the world a creation

But who does it belong to?

I hear you ask

Do the animals rule the world?

Or is man the King?

Do the rivers and seas rule?

What about the valleys and mountains?

These are all part of creation

The foundation of the earth

For us to dwell in

Made by the King of Glory

Can we ascend the hill?

And stand by the mighty?

Are we pure enough in heart?

And truthful in tongue?

Can we receive the blessing?

And seek the face of the King

And let him come in

Through the gate to our heart

Shall we let the King In?

The one who is strong

The one who is mighty

And will fight with you in battle
