Like a lamb led
to the slaughter
Jesus never opened his mouth
From the trial to the crucifixion
And to the grave
he was laid out
After three days
in the garden tomb
I can hear the angels sing
As the lamb came forth
as the lion
And the lion became the king
You won't find him again
at the whippin' post
Standin' there so meek
And he won't be nailed
to a rugged cross
Through his hands
and through his feet
There'll never be
another calvary
'cause he don't have
to prove one thing
That day the lamb
became the lion
and the lion became the king
Jesus left his splendor
to live on Earth as man
By those he was rejected
because he came forth
as a lamb
But the day is soon approach
that every eye shall see
The lamb the lion of Judah
has been crowned
the king of kings
You won't find him again
at the whippin' post
Standin' there so meek
And he won't be nailed
to a rugged cross
Through his hands
and through his feet
There'll never be
another calvary
'cause he don't have
to prove one thing
That day the lamb
became the lion
and the lion became the king
You won't find him again
at the whippin' post
Standin' there so meek
And he won't be nailed
to a rugged cross
Through his hands
and through his feet
There'll never be
another calvary
'cause he don't have
to prove one thing
That day the lamb
became the lion
and the lion became the king
That day the lamb
became the lion
and the lion became the king
And he's the king of kings
