Daniel Mulkey's song 'Without a Redeemer' reflects on the essential role of Jesus as King, Healer, and Redeemer. The lyrics imagine a world without Christ's birth, miracles, and resurrection, emphasizing that without Him, the manger would be empty, the cross just a tree, and the grave the end. The song expresses gratitude for Jesus' work and the believer's dependence on Him for salvation, healing, and purpose. It connects the nativity to the cross and empty tomb, showing that the Christmas story is incomplete without the redemption Christ brings.

Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team

Without a King, the manger, would've never been a bed

And the stable that heaven filled, would be empty instead

The star that the wise men found shinin' in the night

Would've never been more than another light


So give me a king in a manger, give me a healer

One who made a stable home and the broken believers

Cause I don't wanna to live this life, without a leader

Oh I would be nothing, without a redeemer


And without a redeemer, where would I be

But on a broken road, full of pain and suffering

The voice that called me out and gave me a new name

Would've never told me where to lay my sin and shame


So give me a king in a manger, give me a healer

One who made a stable home and the broken believers

Cause I don't wanna to live this life, without a leader

Cause I would be nothing, without a redeemer


And without a healer, the blind would never see

And the garment that the woman touched, would've never done a thing

The voice the demons heard and cast them away

Would've never raised Lazarus, out of the grave

And without a savior, the cross is just a tree

And the grave would be the end of our story

The voice the Father heard, cry out in pain

Would've never told the stone to roll away

So give me a King in a manger


So give me a king in a manger, give me a healer


One who made a stable home and the broken believers

Cause I don't want to live this life, without a leader

Oh I would be nothing

Oh I would be nothing

Without a redeemer


Without Him
