Let the Kingdom Come
Layin' Down My Crown: Embracing Change and Seeking Redemption
Lyrics
I'm layin' down my crown
I'm surrendering my position of authority and responsibility
Yes, I'm layin' down my crown
Reaffirmation of willingly giving up the symbolic crown
Lord, I'm layin' it down
Expressing submission to a higher power, addressing the Lord
And praying let Your will be done
Praying for God's divine plan and purpose to be fulfilled
Lord, I'm layin' down my crown
Repeated commitment to surrender the crown for God's Kingdom
To let the Kingdom come
The act of relinquishing personal authority for God's rule
'Cause I'm so tired and weary
Expressing exhaustion and weariness
Yes, I'm so tired and weary
Reiteration of fatigue and weariness
Lord, I'm weary and hurtin'
Acknowledging emotional pain and suffering
From the back breakin' burden of my crown
Describing the burdensome nature of the crown's responsibilities
My soul is born weary
Inner weariness of the soul
Oh, let the Kingdom come
Yearning for the arrival of God's Kingdom
Well, I crowned myself king
Admitting self-declared authority with negative consequences
Yeah, I crowned myself king
Reaffirmation of self-crowning with regret
But I didn't see the trouble
Unforeseen troubles and sorrows resulting from self-declaration
The heartache and the sorrow it would bring, oh
Reflecting on the unintended consequences of personal choices
Now I'm broken and weary
Current state of being broken and tired
And lookin' for my King
Seeking the true King for restoration and guidance
King of Glory, enter in
Invoking the King of Glory to enter and transform the heart
And sear my heart with love's burning flame
Desiring a profound experience of love's transformative power
Oh, let Your will be done
Reiterating the prayer for God's will to be fulfilled
O Lord, let the Kingdom come
Expressing the longing for the arrival of God's Kingdom
O Lord, I'm layin' down my crown
Repeating the act of surrendering the crown to the Lord
Let the Kingdom come
Renewing the call for the Kingdom of God to come
Oh, oh, let the Kingdom come
Emphasizing the plea for the arrival of God's Kingdom
Oh, oh, let the Kingdom come
Oh, oh, let the Kingdom come
-Oh, oh, let the Kingdom come
-Oh, oh, let the Kingdom come
