See, Your King Comes to You (Zechariah 9:9-17)

a Hymn for the Fourth Week of Advent
words: Gary Hicks, copyright 2010 Gary L. Hicks
tune: “French Carol” (Sing We Now of Christmas)

See, your king comes to you, righteous are His ways
Riding on a donkey, bring Him grateful praise.
How can this be? Such humble pedigree
Yet He reigns victorious, king from sea to sea.

He will stop the warhorse, break the battle bow
Hear His proclamation: peace and justice grow
Prisoners go free, the enemy must flee
Hear the sounding trumpet, voice of Jubilee.

God will save His people on that fearsome day
Like a shepherd lead us in His perfect way
Jewels in His hand, we sparkle in His land
Beautiful before Him, spotless we will stand!
