Hymn Lyrics www.traditionalmusic.co.uk - Christian Hymn Lyrics.  

Thy Kingdom come! on bended knee 
"Thy kingdom come!" on bended knee the passing ages pray; and faithful souls have yearned to see on earth that kingdom's day. 
But the slow watches of the night not less to God belong; and for the everlasting right the silent stars are strong. 
And lo, already on the hills the flags of dawn appear; gird up your loins, ye prophet souls, proclaim the day is near: 
The day to whose clear shining light all wrong shall stand revealed, when justice shall be throned in might, and every heart be healed; 
When knowledge, hand in hand with peace, shall walk the earth abroad; the day of perfect righteousness, the promised day of God.
