Hopesong - The King Has Come lyrics

rate me

There’s a place of fear and hopelessness

A place of endless strain

It’s been that way for a long, long time

A place I believe in ...

It’s a place love unbreak all the chains

Ruled by Satan and sin

This very place is the young man’s dream

And it’s the way it’s always been

Go tell the people, the king has come

Hell’s gates are broken, by god’s dear son

Burdens are lifted, a new hope restored

Chains have been torn away, through Christ, the Lord

There’s an endless cry of broken hearts

Raped and torn by sin

Start too deeply …and care

And no way to make an end

And the bitter cry of the predator

Looking for a way to change

Hurting the ones he loves the most

Filled with loving within

Go tell the people, the king has come

Hell’s gates are broken, by god’s dear son

Burdens are lifted, a new hope restored

Chains have been torn away, through Christ, the Lord

In the pain filled night, a light is seen

A cry comes ringing through

Behold he comes to set you free

And pay the price for you

And the old man stands with trembling heart

Can these news be true?

And the young man hears and leaps for joy

There’s hope for me and you

Go tell the people, the king has come

Hell’s gates are broken, by god’s dear son

Burdens are lifted, a new hope restored

Chains have been torn away, through Christ, the Lord.
