Armies have marched into battle
For thrones that have all turned to dust
Martyrs have died for kings and their kingdoms
That now lie in rubble, ruin and rust
They march on down the roads of the mighty
Cursing their own mortality
Thirsty for blood and hungry for power
Yet blind to the truth that will always be
Thine is the kingdom, the power, the glory
Forever and ever Amen!
The highest of kings still quake at the thunder
And the wise are confounded again and again
Earthly pursuits by fools and their armies
Are driven away by the wind
For thine is the kingdom, the power and glory
Forever and ever Amen!
We point our fingers at history
And think we have risen above
We boast of knowledge and higher awareness
Of life and of light, learning and love
We march on to the banners of glory
Waving our fists to the sky
We claim we're stronger and wiser than ever
But, Lord, let me fall to my knees and cry
Thine is the kingdom, the power, the glory
Forever and ever Amen!
The highest of kings still quake at the thunder
And the wise are confounded again and again
Earthly pursuits by fools and their armies
Are driven away by the wind
For thine is the kingdom, the power and glory
Forever and ever Amen!
Earthly pursuits by fools and their armies
Are driven away by the wind
For thine is the kingdom, the power and the glory
Forever and ever Amen!
(Thine is the kingdom)
