With eyes lifted toward the heavens He made his way to Golgatha As the crowd cursed and mocked his name He stretched out his arms for all to see The King with a crown of thorns And his Kingdom shall never fall The King with a crown of thorns And his Kingdom will never fall This cross it is a heavy burden Only by the Spirit can I lift it And I know that I deserve far worse So everyday I'm thankful for The King with a crown of thorns And his Kingdom shall never fall The King with a crown of thorns And his Kingdom shall never fall Come beside me oh Jesus Help me get this cross up the mountain And when its time to lay my body down I'm grateful that you are The King with a crown of thorns And his Kingdom shall never fall The King with a crown of thorns And his Kingdom shall never fall
