The world turns and the battle rages

The world turns and the battle rages

 I look around and I find my faith is

Anchored down in the king James pages

 And it’s not leaving

Heavy is the load I’m hauling

 Tall are the walls not falling

 But still is the voice that’s calling

 Look up and see ‘em

 Kingdom things

 I lift my eyes and rest my mind

 On kingdom things

 Nothing on this earth could ever steal the sting

 This world brings

Like kingdom things

 I read the words in black and red and

 Try to live this life I’m living

On earth as it is in heaven

 Oh, but it’s not easy

 The enemy gets me surrounded

Gravity keeps my hope grounded

But not for long cause You reach down

And You hold me just like You hold all Your

 Kingdom things

 I Lift my eyes and rest my mind

 On kingdom things

Nothing on this earth could ever steal the sting

This world brings

 Like kingdom things

Where crowns and grace and praise replace the suffering

 And the pain is gone and the joy’s beyond imagining

And You redeem

All Your Kingdom things

 I am reminded in my trials

This world is not my home

And never will be

 And I am reminded in my trials

That nothing here I own will fulfill me

Like kingdom things

 I Lift my eyes and rest my mind

On kingdom things

Nothing on this earth could ever steal the sting

 This world brings

 Like kingdom things

 Where crowns and grace and praise replace the suffering

 And the pain is gone and the joy’s beyond imagining

And You redeem All Your Kingdom things
