Christ the King

I'm leading the worship/service at our church on Sunday.  Every third Sunday of the month we have a somewhat experimental worship.  The theme of the service is Christ the King and as I prepared the service and wrote down some calls/responses a song emerged from the theme, still a bit rough and I'm not convinced that the tune is strong enough and some of the words are tricky to sing (just try terrorist!), but here it is

Worthy is the Lamb
Worthy is the Lamb;
Oh worship Christ the King,
Come worship Christ our King.

For He was born in rags,
a single mum,
a refugee, asylum sought;
a child enemy of those in power;
the ragged refuse of his age.

Worthy is the Lamb (etc)

He kept the company of drunks and thieves
a prostitute was His friend
a terrorist walked freely by His side
this wretched crowd: His retinue

Worthy is the Lamb (etc)

He died upon a cross, that sign of shame
a crown of thorns His only jewel,
a robe of blood, His gown of majesty
deserted then by all he knew

Worthy is the Lamb (x2)
O worship Christ the King
come worship Christ our King.
