O Lord, May Your Kingdom Come

$20.00

This song is an East/West collaboration between Pakistani Eric Sarwar and me. Eric wrote the music based on the shiv ranjni raga and I wrote the text based on Isaiah 11. It is a beautiful statement of longing for God’s promised Kingdom, which at times we can almost taste and other times seems very far off.

Anthem for SATB choir, percussion, and strings. Purchase price allows you to print as many copies as you need for your ensemble.

1. O Lord, may your kingdom come.
O Lord, may your kingdom come.
Where the wolf and lamb
shall lie down as kin,
and a child shall lead them.
O Lord, may your kingdom come.

2. O Lord, may your kingdom come.
O Lord, may your kingdom come.
Where the cow shall graze
and its calves will play
with the cubs of the lion.
O Lord, may your kingdom come.

3. O Lord, may your kingdom come.
O Lord, may your kingdom come.
Where the babe in arms
shall fear no harm
from the snake or the adder.
O Lord, may your kingdom come.

4. O Lord, may your kingdom come.
O Lord, may your kingdom come.
May your kingdom come.
May your will be done,
on earth as in heaven.
O Lord, may your kingdom come.
