All the King's Horses |
|
Words and music by Bob Hartman |
|
Based on Revelation 19: 11-21 |
|
It's an age-old score that's got to be settled |
|
It's an age-old debt that's got to be paid |
|
When the King breaks through in all of His glory |
|
To claim His throne and the world that He made |
|
The nations wait with their armies gathered |
|
With Jerusalem firmly under their thumbs |
|
There will be no peace in Armageddon valley |
|
Till the trumpet sounds and the cavalry comes |
|
When He arrives He will conquer them all |
|
Take back the ground given after the fall |
|
(Chorus) |
|
All the King's horses and all the King's men |
|
Gonna ride down from heaven from where they've been |
|
All the King's horses and all the King's men |
|
Gonna put this world back together again |
|
Gonna put this world back together |
|
On a great white horse the King will come riding |
|
He's the One they call Faithful and True |
|
With His eyes of fire and blood dipped clothing |
|
He had a name nobody else knew |
|
And by His side ride the armies of heaven |
|
Dressed in linen clean and white as the snow |
|
Riding down to earth with a vengeance so holy |
|
For a one-day battle that will trample their foe |
|
And when the dust and the smoke disappears |
|
The King will reign for a thousand years |
|
When the lion lays down with the lamb |
|
There'll be peace in the land of Abraham |
|
They will beat their swords into plows |
|
When every tongue declares and every knee bows |
