David said the heavens declare the glory of God,

and the firmament shows His handiwork.

No means of measure can define His limitless love.

His office is manifold.

His promise is sure.

His light is matchless.

His goodness is limitless.

His mercy is everlasting.

His love never changes.

His Word is enough.

His yoke is easy and His burden is light.

Well, I wish I could describe Him to you,

but He’s indescribable. He’s indescribable.

He’s incomprehensible.

He’s invincible.

He’s irresistible.

I’m coming to tell you,

the heavens of heavens cannot contain Him,

let alone a man explain Him.

You can’t get Him out of your mind.

You can’t get Him off of your hands.

You can’t outlive Him

and you can’t live without Him.

Well, Pharisees couldn’t stand Him,

but they found out they couldn’t stop Him.

Pilate couldn’t find any fault in Him.

The witnesses couldn’t get their testimonies to agree.

Herod couldn’t kill Him.

Death couldn’t handle Him and the grave couldn’t hold Him.

That’s my King! Yeah!

He always has been and He always will be.

I’m talking about He had no predecessor

and He’ll have no successor.

There was nobody before Him and there’ll be nobody after Him.

You can’t impeach Him and He’s not going to resign.

That’s my King! That’s my King!

Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory.

The glory is all His.

Thine is the Kingdom and the power and the glory,

forever and ever and ever

and when you get through with all of the forevers, then . . .
AMEN!
