He Alone is King

[INTRO — mid-tempo chugs; floor tom barrage; surdo pulses] I lift my eyes to heaven And I see one truth remain Every kingdom built by man Breaks beneath His reign [VERSE 1 — heavy chugs; tribal toms; gritty vocals] All the powers of the nations All the rulers of the earth Rise like smoke for a moment Then collapse into the dirt No one can stay His hand No one can block His will He speaks and mountains tremble He whispers and winds go still [PRE-CHORUS — delay guitar; bass slides; rising drums] Who can question Him Who can change His plan He does whatever pleases Him Across the sea and land [CHORUS — massive groove; layered baritone+tenor harmonies] He alone is King His dominion never fades All creation bows To the power that He made No one can resist No one can stand tall He does what He desires In heaven and over all He alone is King Forever on the throne Every breath I take Is mercy He has shown [BREAKDOWN — tom barrage; feedback swells] Sovereign Sovereign Sovereign is His Name [VERSE 2 — stomping riff; tribal percussion; snarled vocals] All the hosts of heaven Stand trembling at His voice Every beast upon the earth Moves only by His choice He raises kings to power He tears their empires down He lifts the weak from ashes He casts the proud to ground [PRE-CHORUS — shimmering cleans; slow snare pulse] Who can stand against Him Who can claim control He rules the storm and whirlwind He reigns within the soul [CHORUS — full wall of sound; harmonies swelling] He alone is King His dominion never fades All creation bows To the power that He made No one can resist No one can stand tall He does what He desires In heaven and over all He alone is King Forever on the throne Every breath I take Is mercy He has shown [BRIDGE — clean guitars; tribal drums; whispered doubles] I was blind with pride Till His glory split the sky Now I fall in awe Before the One Most High [FINAL CHORUS — explosive drums; distortion bloom; full harmonies] He alone is King His dominion never fades All creation bows To the power that He made No one can resist No one can stand tall He does what He desires In heaven and over all He alone is King Forever on the throne Every breath I take Is mercy He has shown [OUTRO — fading toms; clean harmonics; distant chants] He alone is King Forever Amen ===========================================
