Before the King we bow the knee
And pledge eternal loyalty
For He has saved us from our foes
Thus we shall go where’er He goes
Before the King we march ahead
And cross the Jordan’s riverbed
To take possession of the land
He pledged to us with upraised hand
Before the King we bravely fight
Defending what is true and right
Whate’er the risks, despite the odds
We wage a war ‘gainst Caanan’s gods
Before the King we serve and stand
To do whate’er He shall command
To learn His wisdom, sing His praise
And glory in His wondrous ways
Before the King we shall rejoice
So glad to hear His mighty voice
So humbled that for us He cares
Our troubles and concerns He shares
Before the King we shout His fame
Our victory is in His Name
To every nation we shall tell
There is a King in Israel
Before the King a river flows
Which sends forth life where’er it goes
Before our King shall we abide
By Him forever satisfied
