Servant of Servants

Lyrics

On the night before He died Jesus knew His time had finally come So He wrapped a towel around Him side And began to bathe the feet of those He loved Kneeling down to wash them with His hands He revealed a love they did not understand He was a servant of servants The meekest of the meek Forsaking His power Choosing to be weak He was the King of creation And He had the right to reign But He came To be a servant of servants As He made his way around the room The atmosphere was awkward and confused Why had no one volunteered To do what Jesus gladly chose to do Everyone was captive to their pride But Jesus couldn't keep His love inside He was a servant of servants The meekest of the meek Forsaking His power Choosing to be weak He was the King of creation And He had the right to reign But He came To be a servant of servants "Do you understand", He asked After quietly returning to His seat "You are My disciples And I'm calling you to greater works than these As I've done for you this final night Do for one another all your lives" He was a servant of servants The meekest of the meek Forsaking His power Choosing to be weak He was the King of creation And He had the right to reign But He came Oh, but he came To be a servant of servants The meekest of the meek Forsaking His power Choosing to be weak He was the King of creation And He had the right to reign But He came To be a servant of servants (But He came) A servant of servants (But He came)
