Kingdom Come

Lyrics for bringing the Church to life, by Chris Tidd

A

s hate spreads through this land
And injustice floods the streets
as the poor cry out in vain
What will we say?

As children drown in their tears
And pain, still remains
As the strong exploit the weak
What will we say?

But its time for more than words
So rise up and let justice be heard
Hear the sound of
Our generation
Rising up in Jesus’ name
The earth is shaking
The nations waiting
King of glory
Let your kingdom come

While our world slowly dies,
And our church just stands aside
As we hide behind its walls
What will we say?

When everything is gone
And all’s been stripped away,
When we stand before Your throne
What will we say?

But it’s time for more than words
So rise up and let justice be heard

Hear the sound of
Our generation
Rising up in Jesus’ name
The earth is shaking
The nations waiting
King of glory
Let your kingdom come

Let justice roll like a never ending flood
Let mercy flow like a might river through this land
