THERE’S A KING ABOVE THE HEAVENS
There’s a King above the earth
And from out of timeless history
He brought mankind to birth
And when sin brought separation
And tore the heart of the King
He sent his Son, Jesus Christ
A sacrifice for sin
Hup say oh oh oh
Hup say oh oh oh
Hup say oh oh
Hup say oh
Let the rhythm move your spirit
Let the rhythm touch your soul
It’s the power of love, the power of life
It’s the sound of hope
Let the truth be seen by people
As He is lifted high
May nations turn, may nations find
The hope in Jesus Christ
There’s a cry rising up (lift Him high)
There’s a cry rising up (He is alive)
There’s a cry rising up (Oh, oh it’s Jesus)
King of heaven
King of heaven
King of heaven
We lift You high
