The King Of Love Came Down – Hymn Lyric
The King of Love came down to earth
From heav‘n’s resplendent throne,
And here became “the Son of Man,”
That you He might atone.
He humbled His High Majesty
That you He might reprieve;
And e’en became a little Child
That you might Him receive.
Refrain:
Will you receive Him? Will you believe Him?
Jesus, the Father’s own well-belov’d Son;
Will you receive Him? Will you believe Him?
Great, everlasting, unchangeable One.
The King of Love renounced His reign,
And lived the life of men,
To preach His gospel to the poor,
And make them whole again.
He homeless wandered, tired and sore,
To comfort those that grieve;
Yet lived a perfect life on earth
That Him you might receive.
Refrain:
Will you receive Him? Will you believe Him?
Jesus, the Father’s own well-belov’d Son;
Will you receive Him? Will you believe Him?
Great, everlasting, unchangeable One.
The King of Love His life laid down
That you might live alway;
He suffered as your Sacrifice;
He calls to you today.
He has the only way of peace,
He is your God and Friend;
You may in Him find peace and rest
If you on Him depend.
Refrain:
Will you receive Him? Will you believe Him?
Jesus, the Father’s own well-belov’d Son;
Will you receive Him? Will you believe Him?
Great, everlasting, unchangeable One.
Meaning of The King Of Love Came Down
Once upon a time, in a land far, far away, there was a magnificent King. This King was not like any other ruler you could imagine.

Why would a King leave His magnificent throne in the heavens to come to our humble world? The reason is simple – love. This King had a deep and immeasurable love for all of humanity. He wanted to show us just how much He cared and, most importantly, to save us from our sins.
This incredible King became known as “the Son of Man.” He took on our human form, becoming one of us, so that He could bridge the gap between heaven and Earth. He humbled His High Majesty, putting aside His divine glory, all so that He could offer us a chance at redemption.

But this King’s love did not stop there. This King of Love who walked the Earth also came to be a sacrifice. He willingly laid down His own life so that we might have eternal life. He suffered for our sake, taking upon Himself all of our sins and burdens, so that we could be set free.
Now, dear friends, this King of Love is calling out to each and every one of us. He wants us to receive Him, to accept His love and forgiveness. He is eager to be our constant companion, our guide, and our everlasting friend.
