The song "Kingdom Comes" by Sara Groves talks about the power of choosing love, forgiveness, and trust in the face of adversity and difficult circumstances. It emphasizes the idea of making small actions that contribute to bringing about a sense of hope, healing, and the coming of God's kingdom on Earth. The lyrics describe different challenging situations, such as anger, pain, doubt, and fear, and how the narrator chooses a different path. Instead of responding with anger or cursing, they choose to bless others. When faced with injustice, they find a way to trust. Even when fear tells them to protect themselves, they extend a helping hand and open up their home. In moments of sorrow and grief, they still choose to rise and bless the name of God. The song suggests that even in the small, mundane tasks of everyday life, like pouring out and giving, waking up and trying, and laying down and dying, these acts of love and compassion contribute to the building of God's kingdom. Each small action, symbolized by a little stone, a little mortar, a little seed, and a little water, represents the efforts made by individuals, the sons and daughters, to bring about positive change and the coming of God's kingdom. Overall, "Kingdom Comes" encourages listeners to choose love, forgiveness, trust, and hope in their lives, believing that their actions, no matter how small, can make a difference and contribute to the realization of a better world.
