Build Your Kingdom Here

I first heard this song the week that God confirmed our families move to South Sudan. I can't express to you how every single time I hear this song I. Stop! I can not do anything else but listen to the lyrics. It reminds me that I am here to share Christ with others, to lay down my life & to share how God is our Hope & Prize! He created me & you for so much more & I refuse to waste this tiny piece of my life here on earth on myself. It's about bringing Him glory in Every. Single. Thing! No matter where God has placed you in this world He wants you to start a revival. He wants to see His captives set free. And He wants to use Us! We. Are. The. Church. & We. Are. The. Hope ON EARTH!

BUILD YOUR KINGDOM HERE!

Come set Your rule and reign
In our hearts again
Increase in us we pray
Unveil why we're made
Come set our hearts ablaze with hope
Like wildfire in our very souls
Holy Spirit come invade us now
We are Your Church
We need Your power
In us

We seek Your kingdom first
We hunger and we thirst
Refuse to waste our lives
For You're our joy and prize
To see the captive hearts released
The hurt; the sick; the poor at peace
We lay down our lives for Heaven's cause
We are Your church
We pray revive
This Earth

Build Your kingdom here
Let the darkness fear
Show Your mighty hand
Heal our streets and land
Set Your church on fire
Win this nation back
Change the atmosphere
Build Your kingdom here
We pray

Unleash Your kingdom's power
Reaching the near and far
No force of hell can stop
Your beauty changing hearts
You made us for much more than this
Awake the kingdom seed in us
Fill us with the strength and love of Christ
We are Your church
We are the hope 
On Earth

"And He said to them, "Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation."
