Born to Be a King Lyrics
*This song will need pre-approval before use.
This song is written by Maren Ord.
You can find the Born to Be a King sheet music here.
Verse 1:
Baby Jesus, sleeps in a manger
His mother holds him in her gentle arms.
Could he really be called the Son of God,
This baby who is born to be a King?
Chorus:
Hallelujah!
The angels sing his name,
For unto us is born a King this day.
Bells are ringing
As children sing along,
They sing a heav’nly song
to praise his holy name.
Verse 2:
Softly, softly,
His mother sings to him.
I wish I knew him all those years ago.
I will praise him, the Spirit testifies
That he is Jesus Christ, his Only Son!
