Lyrics
Verse 1
My Lord, You wore no royal crown; You did not wield the pow'rs of state, Nor did You need a scholar's gown Or priestly robe to make You great.
Verse 2
You never used a killer's sword To end an unjust tyranny; Your only weapon was Your word, For truth alone could set us free.
Verse 3
You did not live a world away In hermit's cell or desert cave, But felt our pain and shared each day With those You came to seek and save.
