5 of Our Favorite Renditions of "King of My Heart"

Written by Sarah and John Mark McMillan, "King of My Heart" has become a modern worship favorite. The song was birthed out of a season of pain as Sarah was pocessing through her parents divorce. Despite the pain, she was reminded of the great promises of Christ that he will not abandon us in our pain.
Sarah writes: "This song is about the tension we often find ourselves in this life. At the time I wrote this song, I was processing the divorce of my parents and at the same time experiencing the overwhelming joy of having children of my own. Both experiences changed my identity so deeply. I wrote 'King of My Heart' to remind myself that there was no joy or sorrow that could dilute the pure goodness of who God was. Everything I thought I lost, could actually be found in the Force of His goodness."
Let the King of my heart
Be the mountain where I run
The fountain I drink from
Oh He is my song
Let the King of my heart
Be the shadow where I hide
The ransom for my life
Oh He is my song
You are good good oh
You are good good oh
You are good good oh
You are good good oh
Now, let's sit back and enjoy our top 5 favorite renditions of this great song.
