"Build your kingdom here" Great song, fantastic prayer.

Rend Collective Experiment is a worship band from Ireland.  They are not that well known in the US, but they should be!  A student who helps with worship for the youth group was the one who introduced me to Rend Collective Experiment.  Not to long ago I had the opportunity to see them in concert with a group from our church and it was an incredible night that was capped off with their song.  "Build Your Kingdom Here."  Great song, and a fantastic prayer for all of who claim to be followers of Jesus.  Check out the lyrics.


       
Lyrics:

Come set Your rule and reign
In our hearts again
Increase in us we pray
Unveil why we're made
Come set our hearts ablaze with hope
Like wildfire in our very souls
Holy Spirit come invade us now
We are Your Church
We need Your power
In us

We seek Your kingdom first
We hunger and we thirst
Refuse to waste our lives
For You're our joy and prize
To see the captive hearts released
The hurt; the sick; the poor at peace
We lay down our lives for Heaven's cause
We are Your church
We pray revive
This earth

Build Your kingdom here
Let the darkness fear
Show Your mighty hand
Heal our streets and land
Set Your church on fire
Win this nation back
Change the atmosphere
Build Your kingdom here
We pray

Unleash Your kingdom's power
Reaching the near and far
No force of hell can stop
Your beauty changing hearts
You made us for much more than this
Awake the kingdom seed in us
Fill us with the strength and love of Christ
We are Your church
We are the hope
On earth


May this be our prayer.  You can check out the song here....http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YcSWpVKKMcs&feature=related
