lyrics

God’s Kingdom’s like a wedding feast,
The table’s set, the banquet’s free.
Invited guests would not receive God’s Kingdom.
The King sends out his servants to
Remind his guests: this is for you.
There’s prime rib served with oxen stew in God’s Kingdom.

But the guests just shrug their shoulders,
Go to work or to their gardens,
Even worse some kill the servants.

The King sends out his soldiers who
Destroy those guests; their cities too.
They cling to lies; denying truth of God’s Kingdom.
The King had no desire to waste,
He told his staff: “It’s not too late.”
“Invite more guests to celebrate in God’s Kingdom.”

So they went into the cities
Found the praised and found the pitied
And the good, the bad were all invited.

The King was not surprised to see
The mixture of his company
And sinners filling every seat in God’s Kingdom.
But the King could not permit
The guest without his garments.
For there’s no room for hypocrites in God’s Kingdom.

In God’s Kingdom…
For many are called…
But few have chosen…
