About the Song

Meekness and Majesty was written by Graham Kendrick and has become widely sung in churches for its thoughtful portrayal of Jesus as both humble servant and reigning King. The lyrics draw attention to the contrast between Christ’s gentle love and His divine authority.

The song moves from the quiet scene of Jesus walking among people to the wonder of His kingship, inviting worshippers to respond with awe and devotion. Its flowing melody and poetic language make it especially suited to reflective worship, helping congregations focus on the depth and mystery of Christ’s nature.
