Verse 1
What kind of King would leave His throne
In heaven to make this earth His home
While men seek fame and great renown
In loneliness our King comes down
Chorus 1
Jesus Jesus precious One
How we thank You that You've come
Jesus Jesus precious One
A manger throne for God's own Son
Verse 2
You left the sound of angels' praise
To come for men with unkind ways
And by this Baby's helplessness
The power of nations is laid to rest
Verse 3
What kind of King would come so small
From glory to a humble stall
That dirty manger is my heart too
I'll make it a royal throne for You
Chorus 2
Jesus Jesus precious One
(Precious Jesus)
How we thank You that You've come
Jesus Jesus precious One
A manger throne
My heart is a throne
My heart is a throne for God's own Son
