lyrics

The story’s told:
There was a man in days of old,
A king and priest of Salem’s fold
Of righteousness and peace.

A mystery:
His life and how he came to be,
His days went on unendingly.
Much like Christ foretold.

O come and see
How great a man, this ancient priest,
Whose line we find has never ceased
It waits in sleep.

One day this king
Was met by Abram’s company,
Who gave a tenth of everything.
A blessing he presents.

And, in one sense,
The sons of Levi future tense,
They also gave up ten percent
To bless the greater priest.

O come and see
How great a man, this wand’ring King,
Who from the Father’s gifts received.

A better priest
Than Levi’s dying dynasty:
When met with death, the next succeeds
To intercede.

O come! Behold!
The King and Priest of Salem’s fold
Who came and went and yet we’re told
A priest like him would rise.

Behold, the Christ.
Appointed as a priest on high,
To intercede both day and night,
He never dies.

You are a priest forever, a priest who will never die,
According to the ancient order of a newly awakened line!

Hail to the Son! Hail to the King of Peace,
The Righteous One: Our great high priest!

You are a priest, you are a priest forever.
Goodbye, earth…
