HOW MANY KINGS
by Marc Martel & Jason Germain
Follow the star to a place unexpected
Would you believe, after all we've projected,
A child in a manger?
Lowly and small, the weakest of all
Unlikeliest hero, wrapped in his mother's shawl -
Just a child -
Is this who we've waited for?
How many kings step down from their thrones?
How many lords have abandoned their homes?
How many greats have become the least for me?
And how many gods have poured out their hearts
To romance a world that is torn all apart
How many fathers gave up their sons for me?
Bringing our gifts for the newborn Savior
All that we have, whether costly or meek
Because we believe.
Gold for His honor, and frankincense for His pleasure
And myrrh for the cross He will suffer
Do you believe?
Is this who we've waited for?
How many kings step down from their thrones?
How many lords have abandoned their homes?
How many greats have become the least for me?
And how many gods have poured out their hearts
To romance a world that is torn all apart
How many fathers gave up their sons for me?
Only One did that for me!
All for me...
All for you...

This group is very good. I never heard this song until now. Thank you Linda for choosing this song today.

That is one of the best newer Christian songs I have ever heard. I'm so glad that I stopped by and got a chance to hear it. I'm going to add this to my list of favorite Christmas songs.
I got goosebumps listening.
Beautiful song to start off the Christmas Season !
