Have you ever read the Bible verses that talk about boasting in the Lord or praising His name exuberantly? That's exactly what "That's My King" by CeCe Winans makes me think of. It's a song about declaring how majestic and great God is, and rejoicing in Him so much that you can't contain it. We were made to overflow with praise to God. We were made to stand in awe of Him and even publicly declare His character and works to others.
This song will give you words to celebrate who God is and how you've experienced Him in your life. And will it give you words to tell others about Him. As you listen, spend some time praising your King, and get excited to declare His greatness to others so they can come to know Him personally too.
Psalm 34:1-3 (NLT): "I will praise the Lord at all times. I will constantly speak his praises. I will boast only in the Lord; let all who are helpless take heart. Come, let us tell of the Lord's greatness; let us exalt his name together."
Psalm 96:2-3 (NLT): "Sing to the Lord; praise his name. Each day proclaim the good news that he saves. Publish his glorious deeds among the nations. Tell everyone about the amazing things he does."
Lyrics
I wish I could tell you
Wish I could describe it
But I can't contain it
Can't keep it to myself
There aren't enough colors
To paint the whole picture
Not enough words to ever say what I've found
Wonderful and beautiful
And glorious, and holy
He is merciful and powerful
Who we talkin' about?
That's my King
We declare the glory
Give Him all the honor
Altogether worthy
Who we talkin' about?
That's my King
There's no one before You
Yes, we will adore You
All of this is for You
Who we talkin' about?
That's my King
Jesus, You're my King
