König der Könige [English translation]

[Chorus:]

I'm calling the King

Of all kings

Hear me out

And do not destroy us

Do not go to sleep again

You need to be awake now

For everything can happen

Even as you might still be weak

It is time for the time beyond time

If it were here, you'd be ready so far, I'd be ready so far

It is so close and yet so far; is it here yet, insofar?

[Chorus]

Even as the earth might break up

Threatening to devour me

Even as they might be serving lies

About war and death

Lord, I'm praying to You

Not just for daily bread

No, I'm begging You, Lord

Ward off this great danger

[Chorus]

We are in search of clear thoughts

But the space is too tight for them

We are starting to tremble again

When we could long be prepared by now

Pick us as vehicles, please attempt it, Lord!

Calling the King, speak His name out loud

Calling my Lord, I hope He hears me out

Call His name, please look down

Throne in the skies, thorn as a crown

Top of my voice like when angels sing

Ich rufe den König1, yeah, I'm calling my King

[Chorus]

1. I'm calling the King
