Bethel Music's 'My King Forever' featuring Josh Baldwin is a worship anthem celebrating Jesus' sacrifice and resurrection. The song reflects on how Christ's death on the cross washed away sin and shame, and how He tore the veil, conquered the grave, and rolls away stones in our lives. It expresses surrender, offering one's whole life as an offering to the worthy King. The repeated praise to the Lord most high and Jesus Christ as High King of Heaven underscores themes of salvation, gratitude, and devotion. The lyrics emphasize laying down one's life before God, making Him the center of everything.

You gave Your life for mine
Nailed to the cross
You crucified all my sin and shame
It was washed by Your mercy
You are the treasure I find
My reason for living
So let my life become an offering
To the One who is worthy
And all praise to the Lord most high
All praise to the One who saved my life
All praise to Jesus Christ
High King of Heaven
My King forever
You stormed the gates of my heart
The veil in between was torn apart
Now You hold the keys to the grave
'Cause You bring things to life
You roll stones away
And all praise to the Lord most high
All praise to the One who saved my life
All praise to Jesus Christ
High King of Heaven
My King forever
All praise to the Lord most high
All praise to the One who saved my life
All praise to Jesus Christ
High King of Heaven
My King forever
So I lift my hands up
Lay my whole life down
My whole life down before You
I lift my hands up
Lay my whole life down
My whole life now is for You
And I lift my hands up
Lay my whole life down
My whole life down before You
I lift my hands up
Lay my whole life down
My whole life now is for You, everyone
And I lift my hands up
Lay my whole life down
My whole life down before You
I lift my hands up
Lay my whole life down
My whole life now is for You, yeah
And all praise to the Lord most high
All praise to the One who saved my life
All praise to Jesus Christ
High King of Heaven
My King forever
All praise to the Lord most high
All praise to the One who saved my life
All praise to Jesus Christ
High King of Heaven
My King forever
I lift my hands up
Lay my whole life down
My whole life down before You
I lift my hands up
Lay my whole life down
My whole life now is for You
And all praise to the Lord most high
All praise to the One who saved my life
All praise to Jesus Christ
High King of Heaven
My King forever
