King Of Love Chords & Lyrics - Johnny Cash

[INTRO]
Jesus c[G]ame there he lay in a manger of hay
The angels sang the [C]shepherds [G]came

They know not what the future held
They only knew they [C]were com[G]piled from [C]up abo[G]ve
A [C]baby [G]boy the [D7]King of [G]Love

[CHORUS]
He [D7]was a [G]child, he [C]was the [G]sun, he was a man among man
He was a Prince, he [C]was a [G]Saint, he was the [Em]King [A]of L[D7]ove

Jesus [G]grew he [C]was a [G]child

He travelled far in distant lands
His earthly parents [C7]by the [G]hard they [C7]missed him [G]now
He [C7]did not [G]hide he told them then
I must confide I was at my [D7]Father?s [G]side

[CHORUS]
He [D7]was a [G]child, he [C]was the [G]sun, he was a man among man
He was a Prince, he [C]was a [G]Saint, he was the [Em]King [A]of L[D7]ove

Jesus [G]died the [C]world was d[G]ark

Not a sound was there to hark
The breath was gone he [C7]hung his [G]head
But wait let [C]us [G]rejoice for he has risen [D7]from the [G]dead

[CHORUS]
He [D7]was a [G]child, he [C]was the [G]sun, he was a man among man
He was a Prince, he [C]was a [G]Saint, he was the [Em]King [A]of L[D7]ove
