Melanie Hart: Music & Lyrics

From Melanie Hart's book, A New Thing: The Stories Behind the Music..."The simplicity of the Gospel of Jesus Christ is beautiful, like a melodious lullaby. This lullaby is not only to the baby Jesus, but to King Jesus; Holy and Anointed One. Jesus, Lamb of God, Who was crucified, resurrected, then ascended and sits at the right hand of the Throne of God."

Luke 1: 31-32, “And behold, you will conceive in your womb and bring forth a Son, and shall call His name Jesus. He will be great, and will be called the Son of the Highest; and the Lord God will give Him the throne of His father David.”

Lullaby For A King

Savior, Redeemer,
Master of everything
You left Your throne above
To be my King.

Babe in a manger
Little Holy Child
Who took on humanness
To be my King.

So I will honor and adore You
And You will be my King
I will praise You, I will love You,
and You will be my King
The baby is my King.

Jesus, oh Jesus
Holy Lamb of God
Thank you for dying
To be my King.

Jesus, my Jesus
Comfort and Counselor
Thank you for living
To be my King.

Chorus

Noël! Noël! Noël! Noël! Born is the King of Israel...
The baby is our King!
