From Manger to the Throne
Down in Bethlehem one quiet night
A virgin held the holy light
No crown, no riches, just a manger bed
The Savior born, just as they said
Shepherds came with wonder in their eyes
Angels sang across the skies
A baby King, so small and mild
God’s own Son, Heaven’s child
From a manger to a cross
From the cross to a grave
From the grave to glory
He rose to save
Every heart, every soul
Every chain undone
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Jesus reigns on the throne
He walked the dusty Galilee roads
Healing hearts, carrying heavy loads
Fed the hungry, calmed the stormy seas
Spoke of grace and sweet mercy
But men plotted and nailed Him down
Thorns on His head, a thorny crown
Love bore the pain, took the blame
So we could call upon His name
From a manger to a cross
From the cross to a grave
From the grave to glory
He rose to save
Every heart, every soul
Every chain undone
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Jesus reigns on the throne
Nails in His hands, blood on the wood
He could’ve called angels, but He stood
Took the weight of every sin
So we could live, and He could win
The stone was rolled, the tomb lay bare
Death lost its power, Heaven declared
At the break of dawn, the light shone through
The empty tomb, the world made new
He walked with friends, He spoke the truth
And left His Spirit to guide our youth
Now every heart that’s lost and worn
Can rise again, can be reborn
From a manger small, to a throne on high
Our Jesus reigns beyond the sky
From a manger to a cross
From the cross to a grave
From the grave to glory
He rose to save
Every heart, every soul
Every chain undone
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Jesus reigns on the throne
He’s the Alpha, Omega too
Beginning and the End, it’s true
Savior of the broken, friend to the lost
He paid the price, He bore the cost
So lift your voice, let the mountains know
Jesus Christ is Lord of all
Forever on His throne
