Do You Know Him?
He is the King of the Jews, the King of Righteousness,
The King of the Ages, the King of Heaven, the King of Glory,
The
King of Kings and the Lord of Lords.
I wonder, do you know
Him?
David said "The heavens declare the glory of God and the skies
proclaim His handiwork"
My King is the only one with no means of
measuring or defining His limitless love.
No far-seeing telescope can
bring into visibility the coastline of His shoreless supplies.
No
barrier can hinder Him from pouring out His blessing.
He is enduringly
strong, entirely sincere, and eternally steadfast.
He is
immortally grace-full, absolutely powerful, and impartially
merciful.
That's my King!
He is God's Son, the sinner's Savior,
and the centerpiece of civilization.
He stands alone in Himself.
He
is awesome, unique, unparalleled, unprecedented, pre-eminent, and
supreme.
He is the loftiest Idea in literature. He is the highest
personality in philosophy.
He is the Supreme Problem in higher
criticism.
He is the Fundamental Doctrine in all true theology.
He
is the cardinal necessity of spiritual religion. He is the Miracle of the
Ages.
He is the only one able to supply all of our needs
simultaneously.
He gives strength to the weak and encouragement to the
downcast.
He is available to the tempted and tried.
He sympathizes
and He saves. He guards and He guides.
He heals the sick and He
cleanses the lepers.
He forgives sinners and He discharges
debtors.
He delivers captives, He defends the feeble.
He blesses
the young, He serves the unfortunate.
He regards the aged, He rewards
the diligent. He beautifies the meek.
Do you know Him?
My King
is the King of knowledge, the Wellspring of Wisdom,
The Doorway of
deliverance, the Pathway of Peace,
The Highway of holiness, the Gateway
of glory,
The Master of the mighty, the Captain of conquerors,
The
Head of Heros, the Leader of legislators,
The Overseer of overcomers,
the Governor of governors,
The Prince of princes, King of kings, and
Lord of lords. That's my King!
His office is manifold, His promise is
sure,
His light is matchless, His goodness is limitless,
His mercy
is everlasting, His love never changes.
His Word is enough, His grace
is sufficient, His reign is righteous,
His yoke is easy, His burden is
light.
I wish I could describe Him to you!
He is indescribable,
incomprehensible, invisible, irresistible.
The Heavens of heaven cannot
contain Him, let alone explain Him.
You cannot get Him out of your
mind. You cannot get Him off your hands.
You cannot outlive Him and you
cannot live without Him.
The pharisees couldn't stand Him, but they
found they couldn't stop Him.
Pilate couldn't find any fault in Him.
Herod couldn't kill Him.
Death couldn't handle Him.
Do you know
Him?
He always has been, He always will be.
He had no
predecessor, and he has no successor.
There's nobody before him, and
there will be nobody after Him.
You cannot impeach Him, and he ain't
gonna resign.
His is the kingdom, the power, and the glory forever, and
ever, and ever, and ever,
And ever, and ever, and ever.
And how
long is all that? Forever and ever!
