[Verse 1: TobyMac & Kevin Max]
John the Baptist prophesied a Messiah will rise
He'll be tried, crucified, ascend in the skies
Years later, in the City of Dave
A miracle of God gave a virgin a babe
Kings came from afar, followed a star (Mm-mm-mm-mm)
To worship baby Jesus who was born in a barn (Mm-mm-mm-mm)
He brings peace on Earth, His mercy is mild
God and sinners reconciled through the birth of a child (Mm-mm)
It's the story of my Savior, my reason to sing (Don't ya know?)
Allelujah, let it move ya, Christ is King
[Chorus: Kevin Max & TobyMac]
Allelujah
Christ is the King
A-a-allelujah
Let the praises ring
Allelujah
Oh ho ho, hallelujah
Allelujah
Allelujah
[Verse 2: TobyMac & Kevin Max]
He stood before Pilot an innocent man
They cried "Crucify," he supplied demand
He was mocked, spit upon, His clothes were torn
Royalty was represented with a crown of thorns
They placed him in a robe and gave Him a staff (Mm-mm-mm-mm)
As they gambled for His garments, Roman soldiers laughed
Upon Golgotha, they crucified Christ (Mm-mm-mm-mm)
Sent from above to cold pay your price
On His command opposition was through
But Christ said "Forgive them. They know not what they do."
Come on!
[Chorus: Kevin Max & TobyMac]
Allelujah
Christ is the King
A-a-allelujah
Come on! Come on! Come on!
Let the praises ring
Oh, hallelujah
Ooh, yeah yeah yeah, allelujah
Allelujah
Oh, how
[Bridge: Kevin Max & TobyMac]
Ooh
Allelujah
Ah
Oh, hallelujah
Allelujah
Hoo, allelujah
Christ is King
Get talk
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 3: TobyMac & Kevin Max]
Now Mary ran toward the tomb of her Messiah and Lord
Shocked to find the rock removed that served as a door
She took one step inside, filled with fright
She thought a thief must have stole His body late in the night
As she fell to the ground, she began to weep (Mm-mm-mm-mm)
Heard a voice and turned to hear the Savior speak
Christ the Messiah risen up from the dead (Mm-mm-mm-mm)
"He's alive," she cried, like the prophecy read
It's the story of my Savior, my reason to sing (Mm-mm-mm-mm)
Hallelujah, come on, Christ is King!
[Chorus: Kevin Max & TobyMac]
Allelujah
Christ is the King
A-a-allelujah
Come on! Come on! Come on!
Let the praises ring
Oh, allelujah
Allelujah
Ah ah ah, hallelujah
Christ is King!
[Outro: Kevin Max & TobyMac]
Sing "Allelujah!"
Allelujah
O-o-oh, sing, sing "Allelujah"
Christ is the King
Sing, sing "Allelujah"
Allelujah
Oh, ha-a-allelujah
Allelujah
Sing "Allelu—" sing "Allelujah"
