THY KINGDOM COME

(written by Kenneth Cope)

 

Hear us Lord, hear us Lord

God most holy, God of glory

Thou wast turned away

Men set in motion, truth’s erosion

Down to the latter day

O let Thy living voice be heard

Guide us Lord who love Thy word

 

Helper of man most willing

All of Thy words fulfilling

Father and Son – Thy kingdom come

 

Thou hast spoken (opened the heavens)

By Thy chosen, (angels and men)

Then Thy speaking ceased

Now this chaos (Lord have mercy)

Who will save us (Mercy Lord)

Lord we turn to Thee

 

Promises through prophets past

Assure that Thou wouldst send us

Prophets at the last

 

Helper of man most willing

All of Thy words fulfilling

Father and Son – Thy kingdom come

 

Thy will be done on earth by men

As is in heaven

Give us this day the heavenly Bread

Forgive our sin as Thou hast said

Speak once again

 

Helper of man most willing

All of Thy words fulfilling

Father and Son – Thy kingdom come

 

Let us be our Father’s daughters

And become our Father’s sons

Thy kingdom come
