THE KINGDOM OF GOD

The prophets proclaimed the Messiah’s coming;

They looked forward to glorious blessings.

The time of prophecy was now fulfilled;

The Messiah had come to do God’s Will.

 

He had come to speak about God’s Kingdom;

He had come to offer Man wonderful freedom.

Man need not be enslaved by wicked sin;

The Saviour had come, their souls to win.

 

The Gospel of the Kingdom was proclaimed;

The Messiah had come in the LORD’s name.

He had come to invite the poor and lowly;

His invitation was to be received gratefully!

 

The Lord Jesus saw the need to train people;

They would begin as humble disciples.

He would help them to become fishers of men;

The Gospel message would be entrusted to them.
