In humble robes he leads his sheep
Stands guard that they may safely sleep
The darkness to him is not night
As he keeps watch 'til morning light
'Til morning light, 'til morning light
Of all his sheep he will leave none
For he has battled death and won
And from its teeth his lambs he's saved
His hands bear scars of love engraved
Of love engraved, of love engraved
Will you now crown this Shepherd King
And to him every honor bring?
Will you now crown this Shepherd King
And to him every honor bring
This Shepherd King?
His banner flies! Will you deplore?
A Shepherd leads you into war
His staff and rod not left behind
Is he your King, this Shepherd kind?
This Shepherd kind? This Shepherd kind?
Will you now crown this Shepherd King
And to him every honor bring
Will you now crown this Shepherd King
And to him every honor bring
This Shepherd King?
This Shepherd King?
With justice strong he'll always reign
His enemies resist in vain
Yet wounded ones he never leaves
But tends their wounds, their pain relieves
Their pain relieves, their pain relieves
His shoulders bear the injured sheep
And for their sorrow he will weep
He kneels to care for those he loves
This Shepherd King, the Lord above
Will you now crown this Shepherd King
And to him every honor bring?
Will you now crown this Shepherd King
And to him every honor bring
This Shepherd King?
