Story Behind The Song

I simply wanted a song rooted in prayer, and realized the Lord's prayer was, quite literally, perfect.

Song Description

"Kingdom Come" is a Scripture-centered contemporary worship anthem built around the Lord's Prayer and the phrase "Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done." With warm male vocals, acoustic/piano worship textures, and a hopeful midtempo build, the song speaks to spiritual weariness, temptation, perseverance, and surrender. It would work especially well in faith-based films, church media, devotional video, youth ministry content, sermon openers, baptism montages, prayer scenes, redemption arcs, and inspirational end-credit moments.

Lyrics

When Heaven feels so far away
My daily bread reduced to crumbs
When temptations rule the day
Before my faith and soul succumb

Recall my savior won't fore-swear
A faithful servant's job well done
There is a promise in the prayer
My Father told me through his son

Thy Kingdom come
Thy will be done
Yes I'll pray unto the Father and the Son
Thy Kingdom come

So when your crosses weigh you down
And tribulations test your faith
Remember -- HIS -- came with a crown
Yet still He saved us by his grace

So set your eyes on the horizon
Count only blessings, not the wrongs
Raise your hands up to the Heavens
Then lift your voice in prayerful song

Thy Kingdom come
Thy will be done
Let the Earth feel Heaven's will, we'll drink from waters deep and still
Thy hallowed name, promise fulfilled

Thy Kingdom come
Thy will be done
As we all pray unto the Father and unto his blessed Son
Thy Kingdom come
