Lyrics
You can catch a glimpse of kindom at a protest
You can catch a glimpse of kindom in a war
You can see it in a shelter, strangers turning into helpers
Making families that never were before
You can catch a glimpse of kindom at a table
When the hungry find they’re welcome to the feast
When the food is freely shared, and the breaches are repaired
And the bonds of shame and poverty released.
CHORUS
It will be nothing like we’ve ever known
When God shatters every earthly throne.
Then the last and the least, shall at last find peace
When we bring Your kindom home.
You can catch a glimpse of kindom at the border
When the foreigner is treated as our own
When the traveler finds a bed, and the refugee is fed
And the lost are welcomed into their new home.
You can catch a glimpse of kindom in a prison
When the clashing of the shackles comes undone
When the captives rise and sing, and the walls begin to ring
With the sound of liberation just begun
[CHORUS]
You can catch a glimpse of kindom in the grieving,
When the mourners find their tears are not their own
When a circle gathers ‘round them, bearing burdens that confound them
Till the broken-hearted know they’re not alone
You can catch a glimpse of kindom on the playground
When the elders learn new rules from the young
When we’re not afraid to change, generational exchange
Frees us from a past to which we’ve always clung.
[CHORUS]
