If John was more than a prophet, then Christ was much, much more. People stop short of who He is, and we all fall short of who He is, yet He is who He is, by nature: the Eternal Son of God.
Story behind the song
Musically, it began while listening to 'We will Rock You'. I was thinking, what really rocks our world is who Christ truly is. I began to think of all the things that are PART of who Christ is. It could have been a very, very long song, but I like short and snappy.
Lyrics
He is the Messiah,
Better get down small!
He is the King of Kings,
He is the all and all!
More than a prophet,
More than a king,
More than a priest,
Though he is those things.
More than comfort,
More than strength,
Eternal life!
Not just endless length.
He is the Messiah,
Better get down small!
He is the King of Kings,
He is the all and all!
He was born in a manger,
He was nailed to a cross.
He beat death and danger,
He gave gain through his loss.
He is the Messiah,
Better bow the knee!
He is the King of Kings,
Someday your eye will see.
