King Of Heaven [Reign Jesus Reign] Lyrics

Verse 1
Rose as a lion
Came as a lamb
Serving humbly with human hands
Lifted my burdens
So I could stand
Hallelujah

Verse 2
Lived like a shepherd
Loved like a friend
Cared like a father
With holy hands
Holding me close and You won’t let go
Hallelujah

Chorus
Jesus
He is worthy of the glory
He’s the author of my story
Jesus
He’s deserving of all praises
Here’s my love and adoration
I’ll never leave the feet of Jesus

Bridge
Praise God
Praise God
From whom all blessings flow
The living One
Has come to make me whole 

Tag
You’re the king of Zion
Judah’s lion
Reign, Jesus reign
Worthy is the Lamb
Worthy is the Lamb

King Of Heaven [Reign Jesus Reign] Song Meaning, Biblical Reference and Inspiration

Released on April 15, 2022, "King Of Heaven [Reign Jesus Reign]" by Maverick City Music featuring Ryan Ofei is more than just a song; it's a resonant declaration of faith, a corporate prayer set to music that immediately draws one into a space of worship and anticipation for divine rule. At its core, the song articulates a deep spiritual longing for the tangible presence and sovereign authority of Jesus Christ to manifest not only in personal lives but across the earth. It echoes the ancient prayer, "Your kingdom come, Your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven," a plea found in Matthew 6:10 that Christ Himself taught His disciples. The song captures the essence of a yearning for the reality described in Revelation 11:15, where "the kingdom of the world has become the kingdom of our Lord and of his Christ, and he shall reign forever and ever." It is rooted in the biblical truth that Jesus is indeed the King of Kings and Lord of Lords (Revelation 19:16), who has been given all authority in heaven and on earth (Matthew 28:18).

Musically, the track provides a vast, worshipful soundscape that builds dynamically, starting with a reflective atmosphere before swelling into a powerful, communal cry. Ryan Ofei's vocal delivery carries both a tender intimacy and a soaring passion, effectively leading the collective voice of Maverick City Music in this earnest petition. The arrangement supports the thematic weight, creating a sense of expectant reverence and triumphant declaration. It’s music that facilitates encounter, designed not just to be heard, but to be sung and prayed. The repeated central theme, the call for Jesus to reign, is a direct engagement with the hope of Christ's return and the full establishment of His kingdom, a time when every knee will bow and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord (Philippians 2:9-11). Furthermore, the desire for His kingdom to come speaks to the present reality that the kingdom of God is also within us (Luke 17:21) and advances through the lives of believers who have been delivered from the domain of darkness into the kingdom of His beloved Son (Colossians 1:13). The song is a reminder that while we await the consummation of His reign, we are called to live as citizens of His kingdom here and now, participating in its expansion through our lives and prayers. It is a powerful articulation of the Christian hope – not just a future event, but a present reality being unveiled, calling us to stand firm in receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken (Hebrews 12:28). This song serves as an anthem for those who long for the full expression of God's glory and righteousness to cover the earth as the waters cover the sea (Habakkuk 2:14), making it a deeply inspiring and theologically rich piece of modern worship music.
