eliza king – receive him lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
in rumours of old, whispers from the heavens
prophets foretold, of signs and seasons
one who would come, through the line of david
a bethlehem king, of whom angels would sing

[chorus 1]
would we recognise god
if he came without gold, without riches and
spent his first night on earth
with the wanderers and wis+m+n and shepherds?

[verse 2]
born unto men, and born the king of angels
let us come adore him, in the starlit manger
his name shall be great, and his kingdom evеr lasting
find the ancient of days, in the еyes of this babe

[chorus 2]
(but) would we recognise god
if he lay in the hay like a poor man, with
no appearance of might
nor beauty or rank or importance?
would we recognise god
as a foreigner seeking asylum, who
had to flee in the night
without any place to reside in?
[instrumental]

[bridge] x2
i will receive him, this king of heaven
prepare him room within my soul, oh oh
love’s revelation
the king of glory come in humble form
emmanuel is born

[bridge instrumental]

[chorus 3]
would you recognise god
as he played on the knee of a virgin?
learned to speak, learned to walk
divine but in every way human
would you recognise god
if he came and he carried your burdens?
lived a man on the earth
so that every man might come to know him
