To the tune of the classic hit, The Lion Sleeps Tonight.

New Lyrics Original Lyrics
Jesus is king
Jesus is lord
Died for you
He died for me
He's comin' soon
Up in the sky
And wiping tears
From eyes that cry
A-wimoweh, a-wimoweh
A-wimoweh, a-wimoweh
A-wimoweh, a-wimoweh
A-wimoweh, a-wimoweh
A-wimoweh, a-wimoweh
A-wimoweh, a wimoweh
A-wimoweh, a-wimoweh
A-wimoweh, a-wimoweh
In the be-gin-ning
The Word already was
The Word dw-elt with God
Through Him all was made
In the jungle, the mighty jungle
The lion sleeps tonight
In the jungle, the quiet jungle
The lion sleeps tonight
Jesus is king
Jesus is lord
Died for you
He died for me
He's comin' soon
Up in the sky
And wiping tears
From eyes that cry
A-wimoweh, a-wimoweh
A-wimoweh, a-wimoweh
A-wimoweh, a-wimoweh
A-wimoweh, a-wimoweh
A-wimoweh, a-wimoweh
A-wimoweh, a wimoweh
A-wimoweh, a-wimoweh
A-wimoweh, a-wimoweh
Born a baby in a manger
Yet King of all the World
He came to earth to save me
To die for my sin
Near the village, the peaceful village
The lion sleeps tonight
Near the village, the quiet village
The lion sleeps tonight
Jesus is king
Jesus is lord
Died for you
He died for me
He's comin' soon
Up in the sky
And wiping tears
From eyes that cry
A-wimoweh, a-wimoweh
A-wimoweh, a-wimoweh
A-wimoweh, a-wimoweh
A-wimoweh, a-wimoweh
A-wimoweh, a-wimoweh
A-wimoweh, a wimoweh
A-wimoweh, a-wimoweh
A-wimoweh, a-wimoweh
Soon He's coming to all nations
As king and warrior
Bringing death to sin and sorrow
The mighty holy One
Hush, my darling, don't fear my darling
The lion sleeps tonight
Hush, my darling, don't fear my darling
The lion sleeps tonight
Jesus is king
Jesus is lord
Died for you
He died for me
He's comin' soon
Up in the sky
And wiping tears
From eyes that cry
A-wimoweh, a-wimoweh
A-wimoweh, a-wimoweh
A-wimoweh, a-wimoweh
A-wimoweh, a-wimoweh
A-wimoweh, a-wimoweh
A-wimoweh, a wimoweh
A-wimoweh, a-wimoweh
A-wimoweh, a-wimoweh
Jesus is king
Jesus is lord
Died for you
He died for me
He's comin' soon
Up in the sky
We-de-de-de
De-de-de-de-de
De-we-um-um-a-way
We-de-de-de
De-de-de-de-de
We-um-um-a-way
