Brooke Ligertwood Chilling ‘King of Kings’ Performance
One talented young woman, Brooke Ligertwood, gave an emotional and stunning performance of a beloved tune about the Lord Jesus Christ.
The world is a lost place filled with sinners who have turned their backs on God and His teachings. Despite that willful disobedience, God still showed wholly undeserving love, mercy, and grace to us. He sent His Son, Jesus Christ, to Earth as a sacrifice.
Christ willingly went to the cross, enduring a horrible and agonizing death. He took our place, and because of His death and resurrection, we have a chance. We have the opportunity for everlasting life with Him.
In a clip posted on YouTube, Brooke performs “King of Kings.” It’s a song of praise and worship, thanking the Lord for the gift of forgiveness and salvation. He is worthy of all honor, glory, and praise.
“Praise the Father, praise the Son
Praise the Spirit, three in one
God of glory, Majesty
Praise forever to the King of Kings”
Like Brooke’s performance, the lyrics are beautiful. Those words are enough to cause even the most stoic person to become emotional. The song's words detail how much Christ’s entrance into the world immediately and dramatically altered human history forever.
The opening verse mentions how much Christ changed everything for everyone. Without Him, all creation was without hope, sitting in darkness and living in sin and shame. But as the song states, praise God that Christ did not avoid the cross. He took on the cross and the punishment for our sakes.
There is nothing to do but praise and worship Him for what He has done. Regardless, there is nothing that we could ever say or do that would even come close to earning salvation. It’s a gift that is offered to all freely. It’s a gift that has changed lives and continues to do so today.
Christ’s blood, shed upon the cross, wipes away all sin.
"For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish, but have everlasting life” (John 3:16).
