The Best Theme of All
 
1. My heart, come consider the best theme of all,
The King who was born to release us from thrall;
I'll speak like the pen of a writer on fire,
With love, adoration, and holy desire! 
 
2. More fair than all children of men here below,
Because of the grace which from His lips did flow;
Forevermore bless'd in the Father's great plan,
To be "one with God" and to be "one with man". 
 
3. A sword on His thigh, to divide wrong from right,
The law, from His mouth, is both power and might;
God's glorious character clothed Him around,
With wisdom and judgment, like majesty crown'd. 
 
4. His meekness enabled the Spirit to lead,
A King of the truth, all the righteous do heed;
His right hand so freely gives life to the dead,
The lame jump for joy, and the hungry are fed. 
 
5. The words of His mouth reach the hearts of His foes,
Where once there was hatred, now love freely flows;
Those who were rebellious to God and His ways,
Find cleansing, forgiveness, humility, praise! 
 
6. This King is called Jesus, He still reigns above,
And conquers in righteousness, truth, and in love;
For all these great triumphs, His throne will stand sure,
And ever, and ever, and ever endure!
