Preparation for the KingdomJohn 17:1-5 The Father knows when the hour has come, He will glorify His Son to rule His kingdom; The Son then shall glorify the Lord God, Praising Him in the highest honor and laud; Since God has given Him power over all, Giving eternal life to who answers the call; Eternal life from the true God that's known, Sending Jesus Christ to the world to atone; Who from the Virgin Mary was given birth, We glorify the true God here on this earth; Having work that's to be accomplished still, Doing what needs to be and as to God's will; I see much work that still needs to be done, For ensuring that His victory has been won; A lawful throne of His kingdom to establish, That Righteous will treasure and cherish; Patiently waiting for being in His presence, In glory and salvation for their repentance; Confessing of their wrongs and their sin, To enter the kingdom and new life to begin.
