The King Has Come Lyrics

There's a place of fear and hopelessness
A place of endless strain
It's been that way for a long, long time
A place I believe in ...
It's a place love unbreak all the chains
Ruled by Satan and sin
This very place is the young man's dream
And it's the way it's always been
[ Lyrics from: http://www.cloverlyrics.com/e94770-hopesong~the_king_has_come_lyrics.html ]
Go tell the people, the king has come
Hell's gates are broken, by god's dear son
Burdens are lifted, a new hope restored
Chains have been torn away, through Christ, the Lord

There's an endless cry of broken hearts
Raped and torn by sin
Start too deeply and care
And no way to make an end
And the bitter cry of the predator
Looking for a way to change
Hurting the ones he loves the most
Filled with loving within

Go tell the people, the king has come
Hell's gates are broken, by god's dear son
Burdens are lifted, a new hope restored
Chains have been torn away, through Christ, the Lord

In the pain filled night, a light is seen
A cry comes ringing through
Behold he comes to set you free
And pay the price for you
And the old man stands with trembling heart
Can these news be true?
And the young man hears and leaps for joy
There's hope for me and you

Go tell the people, the king has come
Hell's gates are broken, by god's dear son
Burdens are lifted, a new hope restored
Chains have been torn away, through Christ, the Lord.
