Bend the Knee
Ryan Dean

Lift up your heads, O gates, for the King of Glory cometh!
Wrapped up in AdamÕs skin, filled with the blood of man.
Now born in Bethlehem is GodÕs eternal Plan,
with no roof overhead and a manger for His bed.
Hallelujah! Hail the baby King!
His FatherÕs kingdom bring.
Hail the baby, Maker of all things,
We all now bend the knee
and confess that Jesus Christ is King.

Lift up your heads, O gates, for the King of Glory cometh!
Now bursting from the grave, His own from hell to save.
Behold the Lamb once slain with captives in His train;
Having crushed the serpentÕs head, now He grips the throat of death.
Hallelujah! Hail the risen King!
a new covenant to bring.
Hail the Victor, IsraelÕs Surety,
We all now bend the knee
and confess that Jesus Christ is King.

Lift up your heads, O gates, for the King of Glory cometh!
Not this time as a babe, but as a sword and flame.
The veil of heaven is torn, the bridegroom now comes forth
to gather up His bride and to judge the earth with fire.
Hallelujah! Hail the coming King!
a new creation bring.
Hail the Son of God,
Son of Man, King of Kings!
We all shall bend the knee
and confess that Jesus Christ is King!
