Kingdom Things - Matthew West

作曲：Jonathan Smith/Casey Beathard/Matthew West

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 get Jesus

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
