Audio By Carbonatix

GRAMMY-nominated worshipper Phil Wickham is known not only for countless songs that are sung in churches around the world, but also for his inspiring Christmas music. Over the past few years, he’s released several full length Christmas projects including Christmas: Acoustic Sessions and Christmas.

For instance, last Christmas, Phil teamed up with Anne Wilson, and their song “Behold” hit #1 on the Christian AC chart.

This holiday season, Phil has a new Christmas single called “Manger Throne” which celebrates the birth of a King born in a humble manger.

"Humble Manger" Lyrics

You could have stepped into creation
With fire for all to see
Brought every tribe and nation to their knees
Arriving with the host of heaven
In royal robe and crown
The rulers of the earth all bowing down

But You chose meekness over majesty
Wrapped Your power in humanity

Glory be to You alone
King who reigns from a manger throne
My life, my praise, everything I own
To Jesus the King on a manger throne

You could have marched in all Your glory
Into the heart of Rome
Showed them splendor like they’d never known
But You wrote a better story
In humble Bethlehem
Creator in the arms of common men

You will die for our redemption
And You’ll rise so we can live

Glory be to You alone
King who reigns from a manger throne
My life, my praise, everything I own
To Jesus the King on a manger throne

From heaven to the cradle
From cradle to the cross
Let heaven and nature sing
This is our King
But the grave couldn’t hold Him
Our God has overcome
Let Heaven and nature sing
This is our King
