I was blown away as we sang this song in church Sunday. As we sang the chorus, I had a mental picture of Jesus seated on His throne on a high platform. Then He stood and began stepping down from the throne. As the image faded, the Christmas message explode in my spirit. Christ…stepping down from His throne, leaving His home…all for me. With tears in my eyes, I quit singing and simply worshiped the King of all Kings, the Lord of all Lords…who gave it up for me…
As we approach Christmas, take just a few minutes to meditate on that King and Lord. Turn your speakers up, sit back and close your eyes…or stand and lift your arms…worship Jesus…who gave it all up for you.
Downhere performs their song “How Many Kings.”

Chorus and Coda:
How many kings step down from their thrones?
How many lords have abandoned their homes?
How many greats have become the least for me?
And how many gods have poured out their hearts?
To romance a world that is torn all apart?
How many fathers gave up their sons for me?
Only One did that for me.
