Tenth Avenue North's song "A Kingdom Come" is a prayerful plea for God's kingdom to be realized on earth. The lyrics express a longing for relief from tears and troubles, while acknowledging weak faith and asking for help in unbelief. The song emphasizes waiting for God's justice and mercy, and trusting that He is working even amid fear and doubt. It echoes the Lord's Prayer in its refrain about God's will being done, and encourages believers to keep their heads lifted in hope.

How many tears will I have cried
Before you wipe them from my eyes
And how dark will this night become
Before the rising of the sun
And all the while,
You lead through the fire up to
Somewhere beyond my fear
And all I have is love and desire
That one day You�??ll appear
Your kingdom come
Your will be done
Let that be all I want
And as I wait to see Your face
Keep my head lifted up
To a kingdom come, come, come
How many troubles will I know
Before I see Your justice roll
Yeah, I admit my faith is weak
Lord, come and help my unbelief
�??Cause all I have is the hope and desire
That you�??ll have mercy here
Your kingdom come
Your will be done
Let that be all I want
And as I wait to see Your face
Keep my head lifted up
To a kingdom come, come, come
I know You�??re working
I know You�??re moving here
Your grace, a river running
Underneath my fears
Let all my questions
And all my doubts collide
With the promise
You are making all things right
Your kingdom come
Your will be done
Let that be all I want
And as I wait to see Your face
Keep my head lifted up
Keep my head lifted up
To a kingdom come, come, come
To a kingdom come, come, come
Till Your kingdom come, come, comes
