Take a look around and see what's going down.
When everything else is falling apart
And crumbling to the ground.

There's a Kingdom emerging,
And to me that's very encouraging.
A Society where we can be
The people of God.

Take a look around, and see how man is bound.
A life full of sorrow can see no tomorrow
Unless there is peace to be found.

There's a City set on a hill, a running river
Where we can drink our fill.
A Community where we can be
The people of God.

Take a look around and listen to the sound.
A new kind of laughter we're following after
The King worthy of His crown.
And His Kingdom is emerging
And to me that's very encouraging.
A Society where we can be
The people of God.

There's a City set on a hill, a running river
Where we can drink our fill.
A Community where we can be
The people of God.
