Jesus came as a servant not a King

Singing a song 'The King is in the Room'...
For the 3rd time recently I've felt unable to sing along to a song in church.
Sure Jesus is King of Kings and Lord of Lords, but I find language like that makes me feel he's distant and unreachable. Like our own King - I've never seen him with my own eyes, I've no idea where he is and how to get in touch with him. I could write a letter and get an answer from a courtier.

If he was in the room, we might well bow down, or would we - when he appeared to his disciples, he was just one of them, he made them breakfast... before he died, he washed their feet...

I might be wrong but the only time he was acknowledged asking was the sign above his head on the cross when he was crucified

I may

Child of Hell, Child of Heaven

https://youtu.be/PlSx8ElFZXA A rough home recording of my latest song: 'Child of Hell, Child of Heaven' Lyrics, in no particular order lol: I was a child of hell, It wasn't going to end well! All I did was rebel, cos I was a child of hell! I always needed a fix, The devil was up to his tricks I was always on a bender The devil had me round his little finger! I was bound in chains I didn't even know my own name... I was in a prison cell Life was giving me seven bells I was on my way to hell! It was you who saw me there Dying of despair It was you who was the light That gave me back my sight My night was turned to day It was you who showed me the way The truth and the life! That way is you! Wonderful you! I no longer feel blue When I follow you! I am a child of heaven, my sins are forgiven! My night was turned to day I'm on the true and living way My chains are gone,  I've been set free I've got the same power in me That raised Jesus from the dead! I am a chil...

The Woman with the flow of blood healed by touching the hem of Jesus' garment represents the end of the flow of the blood of sheep and goats for the atonement of the sins of Israel!

Mark 5:25-34 KJV [25] And a certain woman, which had an issue of blood twelve years, [26] and had suffered many things of many physicians, and had spent all that she had, and was nothing bettered, but rather grew worse, [27] when she had heard of Jesus, came in the press behind, and touched his garment. [28] For she said, If I may touch but his clothes, I shall be whole. [29] And straightway the fountain of her blood was dried up; and she felt in her body that she was healed of that plague. [30] And Jesus, immediately knowing in himself that virtue had gone out of him, turned him about in the press, and said, Who touched my clothes? [31] And his disciples said unto him, Thou seest the multitude thronging thee, and sayest thou, Who touched me? [32] And he looked round about to see her that had done this thing. [33] But the woman fearing and trembling, knowing what was done in her, came and fell down before him, and told him all the truth. [34] And he said unto her, Daughter, thy faith ...
