The Story Behind the Song, Series 1, Ep. 3: "All Hail King Jesus"

In The Story Behind the Song, we're taking a look at some of the most beloved and iconic worship songs — past and present — to learn where the songs came from, what they meant to their writers and why they've resonated with worshipers. In this episode, Worship Arts Director Kelsie DeReus joins Dayne and Will in the studio to discuss Bethel Music's "All Hail King Jesus," a song that tells the story of the most important moment in history: The death and resurrection of Jesus. This is not a song that shies away from the grimmer, darker part of the story; rather, it shines a light on the grief and despair of the cross and, in doing so, magnifies the glory that would follow.
