King of My Heart was written by Sarah McMillan and speaks of the place the Lord has in our life, and repeats some wonderful truths about Him.
Let the King of my heart
Be the mountain where I run
God’s Word tells us that He is the King of Kings (Revelation 17.14), a strong tower of refuge for those who run to Him (Genesis 15.1, Psalm 3.3, 5.11, Proverbs 30.5, 2 Thessalonians 3.3, and many more!).
The fountain I drink from
Oh, He is my song
Jesus Himself said that He is the fountain of living water (John 4.10, 7.37-39).
Let the King of my heart
Be the shadow where I hide
Psalm 91.1 tells us of the shadow where we hide,
He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will abide in the shadow of the Almighty.
The ransom for my life
Oh, He is my song
God’s Word tells us that Jesus was not only the ransom for our life, but for the lives of the entire world (1 John 2.2). He died to pay the price for your sin, and through faith in Him you are forgiven (John 3.16).
The chorus then repeats a wonderful truth – that God is good (1 Chronicles 16.34, Psalm 31.19-20, Nahum 1.7, Matthew 19.7).
You are good, good, ohh
Finally, what a wonderful truth this is to take into today,
You’re never gonna let
Never gonna let me down
God will never let us down, He has provided all we need for a life of fulfilment and Godliness (2 Peter 1.3), and He always fulfils His promises to us (2 Peter 3.9, John 17.17).
Enjoy singing the praises of our great and good God today!
