I’m excited to share a piece of music with you this morning! It’s an oldie, but one that will be a blessing to each of you, just as it has been to me through the years.

“Who Will Call Him King of Kings” by Sandi Patty was one of my favorites in the 90’s. You can imagine the feelings of these believers at the moment of finding an empty tomb through this song. Between the lyrics and the music, it is an awesome display of their excitement.

But this song takes us one step closer to believing that Jesus rose from the dead. It asks, “Who will call Jesus King of king?” “Who will call Jesus Lord of lords?” These are questions that each of us must answer every day of our lives.

Will I allow Jesus to be the King over all that I do today? My thoughts, my actions, my words? If I say “yes,” then I must be willing to give Him each element of my life. Will I allow Jesus to be the Lord over my day? Then again, if my answer is “yes,” then each moment of this day must be His. Each step I take must be His. Every situation I am in must be His.

So the question is, are you willing to call Jesus the King and Lord of your life? I pray that you will find it within you to say, “yes!”

“Who Will Call Him King of Kings”[i]

Their cold despair they’d laid Him in the tomb
The body of their Master fair
Third morning came as they returned to pray
Light was shining everywhere
But Jesus body was not there

And as they gazed at an empty grave
The earth around began to shake
And they were so afraid
But voices of angels filled the air
Their shouts proclaimed “He is not here”
And you could hear them say

Who will call Him King of kings?
And who will call Him Lord of lords?
Who will call Him Prince of Peace?
Such a Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God?
Who will call Him King?

Their spirits soared as fear was turned to joy
Standing there before their eyes
Jesus clothed in radiant white
And with a voice they heard before
He told them “Go and tell the world that I’m alive”
They ran as fast as feet could fly
“The Lord is rise”, was their cry
And you could hear them say

We will call him King of kings
We will call him Lord of lords
We will call him Prince of Peace
Such a Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God

We will call him King of kings
And we will call him Lord of lords
We will call him Prince of Peace
Such a Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God

Just like He said
He’s risen from the dead
And the people say

We will call Him King of kings
We will call Him Lord of lords
We will call Him Prince of Peace
Such a Wonderful Counselor

I will call Him King of kings
And I will call Him Lord of lords
I will call Him Prince of Peace
Such a Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God

I will call Him King
