Do y'all remember the fall of Adam and Eve, when the snake was makin' ‘em think/ the Creator had played ‘em cheap and was takin' away their freedom/ when... he came decievin' ‘em, playin' the lady's weaknesses/ swayed ‘em to taste the sweetness of danger and hate obedience// he hates the kingdom, betrayed the Maker's allegience/ he ain't as great as he thinks, and he's crazy for claimin' beef with Him/ he made the need the the Savior to save his peeps/ from the flames that Satan will see when creation will take the knee to Him// complainin', greivin', awaitin' the day we're leavin'/ the grave awakened from sleep and we're face to face with the King and ‘em/ His reign is seen in his saints obeyin' his edicts/ eirene shapin' the steeze of “the way” who's claimin' to lead to Him// the hater's treason invaded but can't defeat Him/ who spake the waves into ceasin', was slain and raised to redeem us then/ made us at peace with Him changin' our way of thinkin'/ we ain't afraid of no legion/ the gates of Hades can't beat us// and...
Hook: The Kingdom of Heaven's at hand/ Repent, the Kingdom of Heaven's at hand/ and switch the Kingdom of God is at hand/ ya dig, the Kingdom of Christ is at hand//
Rebellion started with Lucifer and his demons, then moved to Earth and in Eden/ he fooled the first who believed him, then through the curse everything that lives/ hurts and competes with the ruler servin' as leader/ subduin', workin' to eat and produce an earning to feed his kids// birth isn't easy, it's through the urges to breed/ that the two have nurtured a seed, who is doomed to splurge in his greediness/ marriage is beef ‘cause the dude's a jerk and she schemes/ and the youth observe and repeat but they do it worse than they've seen it then// surface their grief in a brutal world full of evil/ that's too perverted to speak of and too disturbing to see my friend/ certainly these are the fruit of serpent's deceit/ and a foolish girl with a treat to consume and learn what it means to sin//shared it with he who is truley worse of the three/ ‘cause he knew the Word but conceded to Lu usurpin' his leadership/ sir he's a thief who is soon to burn up in heat/ when the crew returns with the King of the Universe to complete the vic// ‘cause...
Hook 2: The Kingdom of Heaven's at hand/ Repent, the Kingdom of Heaven's at hand/ and switch the Kingdom of God is at hand/ ya dig, the Kingdom of Christ is at hand// yeah the peace of the Prince is at hand/ you know the shalom of Jehovah's at hand//
And everything that curse has ruined He's fixin', and certain proofs have been given/ in word of future events and observed by dudes who were witnesses/ Jews who have written the works and steward the scriptures/ preserve the truths for the livin' to search and through ‘em envision Him// duelin' dominions of Earth, pursuin' His vengence/ on persecutors against Him for murkin' dudes who were middle men/ slew ‘em by spittin' the Word into ‘em which split ‘em/ in thirds and twos in the spillage, He's servin' food for the pigeons and// soon every Christian who heard the news and repented/ will learn anew of redemption in worship, viewin' His Splendidness/ foolish religions that work to prove they should get in/ will earn the true definition of worthless, futile and impotent// brutal depictions prepare the beautiful image:/ the perfect rule of the Prince and the World subdued and made innocent/ fuelin' the mission the church is doin' by rippin'/ the curtain, fruit of the Spirit will serve as proof that it will exist//

We thought we could figure it out
And make our lives work on our own
Adam, Eve rebelled in Eden
We're all like them, all homegrown
But there is a savior
And His power is greater
He reigns now and later
(the Kingdom of God is at hand)
All who believe
We will praise our King
Before His throne
