 1  Jesus the kingdom has come into us,

    Reigning and shining He's all glorious,

    Christ as the seed is the King who has come,

    Into our spirit His kingdom He's sown.

 

O let Him grow, O let Him grow;

His kingdom life be all we know.

Jesus, the kingdom is sown into us;

Jesus, the kingdom, O how glorious!

 

 2  We must repent for the kingdom's at hand;

    All that we do, think, or feel, or have planned

    Must be abandoned and changed in our mind;

    Leave all the world and self-seeking behind.

 

O let Him grow, O let Him grow;

His kingdom life be all we know.

Jesus, the kingdom is sown into us;

Jesus, the kingdom, O how glorious!

 

 3  All of religion has missed it again,

    Teaching for doctrines the concepts of men;

    They vainly wait for the kingdom to be,

    A dispensation they're hoping to see.

 

O let Him grow, O let Him grow;

His kingdom life be all we know.

Jesus, the kingdom is sown into us;

Jesus, the kingdom, O how glorious!

 

 4  But now the kingdom to us has been shown,

    It is no less than our Jesus alone.

    It is the Person of Christ in us all,

    And it begins as a seed when we call.

 

O let Him grow, O let Him grow;

His kingdom life be all we know.

Jesus, the kingdom is sown into us;

Jesus, the kingdom, O how glorious!
