Verse 1 (soft, almost whispered)
I come with dust upon my knees
Not with crowns, not with degrees
Just a child who wandered far
Looking up at who You are
Angels tremble when You rise
Yet somehow here I stand
With my small and shaking hands
—
Pre-Chorus (gentle build)
What kind of King
Lets children near?
What kind of God
Wipes every tear?
—
Chorus (reverent, slow Afro sway)
I kneel before You
Lion and Lamb
Holy forever
Yet You call me Your child
You lift my chin
You wash my face
Wrap me in mercy
Clothe me in grace
Ohhh what kind of King
Would carry me home?
The God of love
Who sits on the throne
—
Post-Chorus (layered chant, soft rhythm)
Eh-eh-eh
Holy, holy
Eh-eh-eh
Yet so near
Eh-eh-eh
Gentleness and kindness
Meeting here
—
Verse 2
You don’t turn from dirty hands
You don’t shame where I have been
You kneel down in a royal robe
And pull my trembling body close
Water flows from wounded side
Cleans the shame I used to hide
Not with force, not with demand
But with scars upon Your hands
—
Pre-Chorus 2
What kind of throne
Has room for me?
What kind of crown
Bends lovingly?
—
Chorus (stronger, drums rise)
I kneel before You
King of all
Maker of oceans
Yet You meet my eyes
You lift me up
Set me on high
Seat me beside You
Call me Your child
Ohhh what kind of King
Would fight for my soul?
The God of love
Who makes me whole
—
Bridge (intimate, almost crying worship)
Jesus…
I don’t deserve to be this close
Jesus…
But You say I belong
You wash my feet
With royal, holy hands
You write my name
In nail-scarred palms
I don’t just bow
I’m held in Your arms
—
(Build – soft warrior daughter rise)
Crowned in mercy
Marked by grace
Daughter of the Holy One
Standing face to face
Not afraid
Not undone
Held by the Eternal Son
—
Final Chorus (reverent but triumphant)
I kneel before You
You lift me gently
And hold me in Your arms
Lion and Lamb
Righteous and kind
The God of fire
Father’s heart
Ohhh what kind of King
Would bend so low?
The God of love
Who won’t let me go
