We Are Receiving a Kingdom

We are receiving a kingdom

Heaven seems distant
An unworthy goal
When temptation pulls at our soul
Our knees start to weaken
We nearly drop down
But we must hold on
To inherit the crown
And the end of the race is assured
For those who have fixed
Their eyes on the Lord

We are receiving a kingdom
That can never be shaken or moved
Whose foundation lies
In the heart of God
Whose walls are eternal truth
We are receiving a kingdom
Whose borders will ever increase
So, let's run with endurance
And grateful assurance
And praises that never cease

The voice of saints before us
Echoes from the grave
Don’t despise the outcome of your faith
The pleasures of sin
They're a feeble disguise
For the enemy who's scheming
To take away our lives
Let us look to the Lamb that was slain
Who suffered the cross
For the joy He would gain

We are receiving a kingdom
That can never be shaken or moved
Whose foundation lies
In the heart of God
Whose walls are eternal truth
We are receiving a kingdom
Whose borders will ever increase
So, let’s run with endurance
And grateful assurance
And praises that never cease

We are receiving a kingdom
That can never be shaken or moved
Whose foundation lies
In the heart of God
Whose walls are eternal truth
We are receiving a kingdom
Whose borders will ever increase
So, let's run with endurance
And grateful assurance
And praises that never cease

We are receiving a kingdom
We are receiving a kingdom
We are receiving a kingdom
We are receiving a kingdom
