1e couplet:
What kind of King would leave His throne
In heav'n to make this earth His home
While men seek fame and great renown
In lowliness our King comes down
Refrein:
Jesus, Jesus, precious One
How we thank You that You've come
Jesus, Jesus, precious One
A manger throne for God's own Son
2e couplet:
You left the sound of angels praise
To come for men with unkind ways
And by this Baby's helplessness
The pow'r of nations is laid to rest
Refrein:
3e couplet:
What kind of King would come so small
From glory to a humble stall
That dirty manger is my heart too
I'll make it a royal throne for You
Refrein:
