Joshua Leventhal - Kingdom Lyrics

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
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
Oh-oh-oh
The Kingdom belongs to the least expected
So-oh-oh
Come all you weary despised and rejected
Oh-oh-oh
The Kingdom belongs to the so-called lost cause
The ones overlooked are the ones your God wants
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 nobody
Who gives him mercy and a bath
Oh-oh-oh
The Kingdom belongs to the least expected
So-oh-oh
Come all you weary despised and rejected
Oh-oh-oh
The Kingdom belongs to the so-called lost cause
The ones overlooked are the ones your God wants
The ones overlooked are the ones your God wants
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
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
Oh-oh-oh
The Kingdom belongs to the least expected
So-oh-oh
Come all you weary despised and rejected
Oh-oh-oh
The Kingdom belongs to the so-called lost cause
The ones overlooked are the ones your God wants
The ones overlooked are the ones your God wants
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
