Why Would a king?

Why Would A King?
Karen Itzel, Shannon Kraft, Bill Itzel

The older I get the more I can see
Just how far His hand had to reach down for me
I know I’m unworthy of the mercy He’s shown
That the King of all glory would come down from His throne

Chorus
Why would a King become poor for a pauper?
Why would a King trade His robe for my rags?
Because of this sacrifice, He is exalted
The King who came down to man

The Word became flesh and lived among men
He humbled Himself to the point of His death
Now He is exalted with the name above all
And every knee will bow confessing Jesus is Lord
