OUT THIS FRIDAY
Pre-save below
Let Your Kingdom Come started with a simple WhatsApp message. “For the next song, I’d love for us to write something with a missional focus”, Pete typed, “I think we’re lacking songs with that kind of theme.”
More than that, we wanted the song to be mission-focused without being self-focused. Not singing about what we’re going to do for God, but what he’s already doing in the world. He’s the one who predestines, calls, and justifies the lost. He doesn’t need us. But in some wonderful and mysterious way, he invites us to share his good news. We’re representatives of a king, sent to declare a message of hope in towns and cities everywhere.
The pressure is off. The Father is working, and his kingdom is coming. We get to join in his work and watch in amazement as he changes London with the good news of his Son, Jesus.

Lyrics
Verse 1
The Father’s heart is longing
To lead the wanderer home
He’s waiting, ever patient
To call the lost his own
His love’s a roaring fire
That burns for every soul
It shines into the darkness
And melts the heart of stone
Chorus
Raise a shout for the king who reigns
Raise a cry for his holy name
Raise a song for our city
Let his kingdom, his kingdom come
Send us out as your holy church
Send us out to a dying world
Send us out by your spirit
Let your kingdom, your kingdom come
Verse 2
There’s hope on the horizon,
The Father’s heart is longing
To lead the wanderer home
He’s waiting, ever patient
To call the lost his own
His love’s a roaring fire
That burns for every soul
It shines into the darkness
And melts the heart of stone
Bridge
Let your kingdom come in us
Let our hearts burn for the lost
For your glory, all for Christ
To the nations we will tell
Of a love that never fails
For your glory, all for Christ
