joshua leventhal - kingdom lyrics

[verse 1]
it’s like a seed, unseemly in the earth
like the lost coin of a widow
who seeks hard ‘cause it’s precious to her
and that seed becomes the mightiest of
trees
the true temple god intended
where even beggars can be priests

[verse 2]
like a father kissing his wayward son
even after he spat in his face
and trampled all over his love
home awaits after all the squandered
days
it’s like the owner of a vineyard
indiscriminate with wage

[chorus]
oh+oh+oh
the kingdom belongs to the least
expected
so+oh+oh
come all you weary, despised, and
dejected
oh+oh+oh
the kingdom belongs to the so+called
lost cause
oh+oh+oh
the ones overlooked are the ones your
god wants
[verse 3]
it’s like a pearl, hidden with matchless
worth
that a man sells his whole life for
because he knows what it secures
like a victim lying beaten on the path
when along comes some n0body
who gives him mercy and a bath
bridge
blessed are the ones
with nothing left in their soul
blessed are the meek, the weak, the
grieved and disowned
those who thirst for righteousness and
will never stop
blessed are the pure in heart for they will
see god

[verse 4]
like a banquet where the wounded get a
seat
all the proud will be cast out
the weak will sit at the master’s feet
for he called the rabble right out of the
streets
it’s the sinners, lost, and lepers
he’s inviting to his feast
