The Kingdom

I tell you the truth when I say
That the kingdom is on the way, on the way
I tell you the truth when I say
That the kingdom is here today, here today

I think I found it, an inspiration
I can see a glorious nation
It's over there just above Zion
And it looks like Jerusalem

It's on the way, the date is set
It's here today, but not here yet
Can almost hear, can almost see
It's a banner caught upon the breeze

Upon it is a Lion

I tell you the truth when I say
That the kingdom is on the way, on the way
I tell you the truth when I say
That the kingdom is here today, here today
Christ reigns now and don't forget that the kingdom is not yet

It's getting closer to fulfillment
But the kingdom began with the advent
He is reigning through His people
The first will be nothing compared to the sequel

No more war, no more crime
No more unemployment line
And there is Christ upon His seat
Where mercy, truth and justice meet

And He will never falter

I tell you the truth when I say
That the kingdom is on the way, on the way
I tell you the truth when I say
That the kingdom is here today, here today
Christ reigns now and don't forget that the kingdom is not yet

And with one voice, we all will sing
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
To the Prince of peace and King of kings
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
His reign is everlasting
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)

I tell you the truth when I say
That the kingdom is on the way, on the way
I tell you the truth when I say
That the kingdom is here today, here today

I tell you the truth when I say
That the kingdom is on the way, on the way
I tell you the truth when I say
That the kingdom is here today, here today, here today
