Skillet – This Is The Kingdom lyrics

[Intro]
This is the kingdom, kingdom
This is the kingdom, kingdom

[Verse 1]
Everybody's building empires
Building walls high in the name of glory
Everybody's hanging high wires
It's a fine line, it's an age-old story

[Pre-Chorus]
The first will be last
And the last will be kings
The small will be great
And the great will be weak
Everybody's building empires
But it's our time

[Chorus]
This is the kingdom
Heaven coming down to the corners of the Earth
This is the kingdom
Come alive in us, gonna light up this whole world
This is for freedom, freedom
To break off every chain
This is the kingdom

[Verse 2]
Blessed are the bound and broken
You're a citizen, and your faith will prove it
Blessed are the persecuted
And the wounded, you'll be crowned as rulers

[Pre-Chorus]
The first will be last
And the last will be kings
The small will be great
And the great will be weak

[Chorus]
This is the kingdom
Heaven coming down to the corners of the Earth
This is the kingdom
Come alive in us, gonna light up this whole world
This is for freedom, freedom

[Post-Chorus]
Forever (Forever), forever (Forever)
Everything else is gonna fade away
It stands forever (Forever), forever (Forever)
Everything else is gonna fade away
We stand together, together
One heart, one voice, one name
It stands forever (Forever), forever (Forever)
Forever

[Bridge]
This is the kingdom
This is the kingdom, kingdom (Oh)
This is the kingdom

[Chorus]
This is the kingdom
Heaven coming down to the corners of the Earth
This is the kingdom
Come alive in us, gonna light up this whole world
This is for freedom, freedom
This is for freedom, freedom
To break off every chain
This is the kingdom
This is the kingdom

[Outro]
This is the kingdom, kingdom
This is the kingdom, kingdom
