[Verse] Upon the wood they raised the sign A truth engraved in borrowed time In three tongues carved for all to see A silent claim of sovereignty [Chorus] King of the Jews is writ in stone For every heart and soul to own A crown of thorns but still He reigns Through love that breaks all earthly chains [Verse 2] The doubters laughed the rulers sneered But sacred truth remains revered A kingdom built not by the sword But by the grace of Heaven's Lord [Chorus] King of the Jews they wrote in stone For every heart and soul to own A crown of thorns but still He reigns Through love that breaks all earthly chains [Bridge] What they denied what they defied The broken saw and testified The sign declared the cost was paid Through sacrifice our path was laid [Chorus] King of the Jews is writ in stone For every heart and soul to own A crown of thorns but still He reigns Through love that breaks all earthly chains
