HE WAS KING
He was King to rural peasants in pastures lush or bare,
Shepherds bound to a timeless trade.
He was King to men who give tender love and care,
Whether ‘long mountain trail or thru creeks they wade.
He will be King of a City with a million square miles,
The gates will be pearl, the streets will be gold.
Because of their King the dwellers all have smiles,
He redeemed them by His resurrection long foretold.
