Lyrics

[Intro: TobyMac & Kevin Max] Ooh Ah Allelujah Allelujah Oh, oh, hallelujah Hallelujah Mm-hmm Hallelujah O-o-oh, hallelujah Allelujah [Verse 1: TobyMac & Kevin Max] John the Baptist prophesied a Messiah will rise He'll be tried, crucified, ascend in the skies Years later, in the City of Dave A miracle of God gave a virgin a babe Kings came from afar, followed a star (Mm-mm-mm-mm) To worship baby Jesus who was born in a barn (Mm-mm-mm-mm) He brings peace on Earth, His mercy is mild God and sinners reconciled through the birth of a child (Mm-mm) It's the story of my Savior, my reason to sing (Don't ya know?) Allelujah, let it move ya, Christ is King [Chorus: Kevin Max & TobyMac] Allelujah Christ is the King A-a-allelujah Let the praises ring Allelujah Oh ho ho, hallelujah Allelujah Allelujah [Verse 2: TobyMac & Kevin Max] He stood before Pilot an innocent man They cried "Crucify," he supplied demand He was mocked, spit upon, His clothes were torn Royalty was represented with a crown of thorns They placed him in a robe and gave Him a staff (Mm-mm-mm-mm) As they gambled for His garments, Roman soldiers laughed Upon Golgotha, they crucified Christ (Mm-mm-mm-mm) Sent from above to cold pay your price On His command opposition was through But Christ said "Forgive them. They know not what they do." Come on! [Chorus: Kevin Max & TobyMac] Allelujah Christ is the King A-a-allelujah Come on! Come on! Come on! Let the praises ring Oh, hallelujah Ooh, yeah yeah yeah, allelujah Allelujah Oh, how [Bridge: Kevin Max & TobyMac] Ooh Allelujah Ah Oh, hallelujah Allelujah Hoo, allelujah Christ is King Get talk [Guitar Solo] [Verse 3: TobyMac & Kevin Max] Now Mary ran toward the tomb of her Messiah and Lord Shocked to find the rock removed that served as a door She took one step inside, filled with fright She thought a thief must have stole His body late in the night As she fell to the ground, she began to weep (Mm-mm-mm-mm) Heard a voice and turned to hear the Savior speak Christ the Messiah risen up from the dead (Mm-mm-mm-mm) "He's alive," she cried, like the prophecy read It's the story of my Savior, my reason to sing (Mm-mm-mm-mm) Hallelujah, come on, Christ is King! [Chorus: Kevin Max & TobyMac] Allelujah Christ is the King A-a-allelujah Come on! Come on! Come on! Let the praises ring Oh, allelujah Allelujah Ah ah ah, hallelujah Christ is King!
