- Christmas song about Jesus' humble birth in Bethlehem
How should a king come?
Even a child knows the answer, of course:
In a coach of gold with a pure white horse!
In the beautiful city, in the prime of the day;
And the trumpets should cry and the crowds make way!
And the flags fly high in the morning sun,
And the people all cheer for the sovereign one!
And ev'ryone knows that's the way that it's done,
That's the way that a king should come!
How should a king come?
Even a commoner understands
He should come for his treasures and his houses and lands!
He should dine upon summer strawberries and milk,
And sleep upon bed clothes of satin and silk!
And high on a hill his castle should glow
With the lights of the city like jewels below!
And ev'ryone knows that's the way that it's done,
That's the way that a king should come!
On a star filled night into Bethlehem
Rode a weary woman and a worried man;
And the only sound in cobblestone street
Was the shuffle and the ring of their donkey's feet.
And a King lay hid in a virgin's womb,
And there were no crowds to see Him come.
At last in a barn in a manger of hay
He came, and God incarnate lay!
And the angels cried, "Glory! Glory to God!"
Earth was silent so heaven rang!
"Glory! Glory to God!"
Men were dumb so the angels sang:
"Glory! Glory to God! Peace on earth! Good will to men!
Glory! Glory to God!" Christ is born in Bethlehem!
"Glory to God! Glory in the highest!
Glory to God! Glory in the highest!
Glory to God!"
This version was sung by "The Crystal Sea Choir". I bought the cassette this song was on back in the 1990's, but have long since lost it. It was a whole collection of beautiful Christmas songs. Cannot find them anywhere on the web now though.
This is becoming my favorite Christmas song
Happy Birthday King Jesus!
ST JOHN 3:16! ❤
JESUS IS RETURNING SOON!
HALLELUJAH! ❤️✝️❤️
GLORY to GOD!!
I've been to the the hills where the shepards heard the angels sang GLORY to GOD!
One of my all time favorite Christmas songs. It is such a shame that no one plays it any more. I always heard it on one radio station long ago. Now the station went off the air. How can we get this played more during the Christmas season. This brings the true meaning of Christmas to a world that needs it more than ever before. Brings great joy to my heart, glad I can get it on my IPad!
I heard it today on BBN Christian radio in Chattanooga area. 89.7 I think it is.
If you mean WFME Family Radio, they have an app now and they're on AM now, at least here in NY.
Definitely worth seeing and hearing again and again. "Glory to God!"
God sacrificed himself to himself to save humanity from his own anger. Can’t make this up, but apologists insist this actually happened.
This is a goose bump, chilling song. At least one of my top 3 songs of the birth of the SAVIOR of us sinners. Glory to God in the Highest for sure❤. Awesome, inspirational,excellent, tremendous, tear jerking and full of Biblical truths...that scarcely describes this remarkable tune. I NEVER tire of it. And no I have actually never heard it on the radio.... I heard it first in a church in 1972. I got a cassette recording of the “production” ( pretty much wore it out. Then when I got my Ipad a few years back I found it again... Love it and share it w/ everyone. I have many copies of the words for those who want to sing along. God bless you for this particular version. The video is spectacular!!😊❤Keep it up & thank you. Merryhristmas to all & Glory to GOD!!😊❤
I heard this song on the radio years ago and never forgot it. I think it's my favorite Christmas song.
Love this. Have listened to it for years and so glad someone put it in a video.
MY BEST CHRISTMAS SONG
Beautiful! The true meaning of Christmas and what it is REALLY all about! Thanks for posting!
Excellent song, Very meaningful. I love it.
Talents like Ralph Carmichael, Otis Skillings and Jimmy Owens are rare these days
Beautiful..thank you..so real!!!!!!!!!
I love to watch this...one of the best dipictions of Saint Jospeh that I have ever sen. And Mary was so beautiful ..so real... thank you!!!
To the owner: Because of COVID restrictions in my city, our church would like to play this video for our Christmas Eve service. Asking permission to do so. Please let me know. God bless!
Thank you!
A beautiful video.
Wow what an impressive video. Beautifully done, thank you.
Anyone listening in August?
Lovely piece. I loved it.
beautiful song beautiful actress
This was very clever! Having the big trumpets play with soft ones! Clever! Used more than one movie to do it like one of my favorites, The Naivety Story! I admire that! Thanks for posting this and Jesus loves you!
It gives such a realization of how lowly the birth of Jesus was. He could have come as impressive royalty.
@@homejo9601 True but instead He came humbly as a helpless baby and in a stable in order to save us.
I do love this!
Hermosísima alabanza... Lastima que no permite subtitulos en español
Heard it on Family Radio, now I'm here.
Me, too!
Love this presentation. I am the choir director at Laguna Beach United Methodist Church and have the choral music for this piece, but would love to add the video next year. Is the video available from any source?
I love this version of "How Should A King Come". Who performed it?
Where can I get sheet music for this arrangement?
Are you able to tell me who is singing this? I'd like to see if I can find the choir music. Thanks!

What movie is this from?
The Son of GOD, the HOLY ONE OF ISRAEL, MESSIAH JESUS CHRIST THE LORD IS BORN!
Everything about that first Christmas was wrong. EVERYTHING! Well at least according to man's standards it was. But we need to remember that the wisdom of GOD is foolishness to man.
Recently I posted "Mary did you know" Did she know that baby born she just deliver would soon deliver her and all who would believe in Him? Oh some think it was not right that Jesus was born in a manger but I believe it was the perfect place for the LAMB OF GOD who would take away the sin of all who believe.
Listen to this song and see for yourself how perfect it was but more important, if you have not accepted the most precious gift ever given, the full payment for your sin so that you can have eternal life, do it today.
