A kingdom where children will lead

D#  G#m       E            F#        G#m** F#
 So near and yet still so far, far away

     E        D#sus4       G#m
So close, and yet still to come

   G#m          E         F#          G#m** F#
Concealed, the seed is mys--teriously growing

     E                F#      G#m    F#5 G#5
In hearts that will listen and hear

    G#5/C#          E        G#m

A kingdom where children will lead

    E/G#         E        F#         G#m   F#
For now this kingdom's a land of the low--ly

    E           D#sus4           G#m
A place for the tired, plundered poor

B    G#m        E             F#        G#m   F#
Now our gentle King comes in peace on a don--key

     E          F#        G#m   F#5 G#5
But then on a charger for war

   G#5/C#    E        G#m              B *
A battle in heaven, a war on the earth

D#    E         F#             D#sus4
To shatter the long darkened siege

A kingdom that holds all the wilds of  cre--a--tion

B G#      A            D#sus4       G#m
     A kingdom where children will lead

A
Not by our own strength

C#m
And not by the power of might

D            G#m      F#
But by His Spirit it comes

A
Blinded eyes will see

C#m
And deafened ears will hear

      D              D          D#sus4
The praise from the lips of the dumb

    E           F#        G#m            F#
A kingdom of beauty, a kingdom of love

    E           D#m        E        F#
A kingdom of justice and peace

A kingdom that holds all the wilds of  cre--a--tion
