"Thy Kingdom Come" - an inspirational poem by Pearlie Duncan Walker

Thy Kingdom Come

Click on button to play music.

Lord, the trials and tribulations,
On this old earth, are hard to bear.
Thank Thee that, one day soon,
Thou will bring us to Thy Kingdom, there.

Though the hills and valleys are green
And alive, with beauty of Thy theme,
Let us, of the soon coming of Thy Kingdom,
Be in everyone's dream.

We love the beauty of the flowers,
The miracle of an unfolding rose.
Of the majestic opening of the petals
of flowers, everyone knows ...

That it was of Thy making;
Which was only a tiny part of Thine art
And a bigger one is of Thy Kingdom,
Coming into all Thy people's heart.

Lord, we know that the fashioning of each
And everything being is by Thy hand.
Wondrous art Thy works, Oh Lord,
In each and every land.

The rivers running swiftly.
The pines stand graceful and tall.
The Church bells ring on the Sabbath,
When the people come to call.

The sparkling of the stars and the moonbeams
That seem close enough to touch,
The hills and forests have about them;
An awesome wonder we love so much.

Let all things be of Thy Kingdom
That's here, on earth, each and every day.
And, help us love and trust Thee,
Oh Lord, in every prayerful way.

Let Thy Kingdom come;
Thy will be done in all our lives.
Let us know that nothing escapes Thine eyes
And that with each of us you will surely go.

Though it be a thousand years,
Or should it be as tomorrow when we awake,
Let Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done ...
As to Heaven, our souls, you take.
