Prince Of Peace
Twila Paris's 'Prince of Peace' is a worship song that calls on Jesus to return and establish His reign over a world in turmoil. The lyrics contrast the hopelessness and fear of a generation that denies God with the peace and authority that Christ brings. The song includes a prayerful intercession, echoing the Lord's Prayer with 'Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done,' and expresses a longing for Jesus to take His rightful throne. It's a plea for divine intervention and a declaration of faith in Christ's ultimate sovereignty.
There is no hope for a world that denies you
Firmly believing a lie
Hiding their hearts while their minds analyze you
Cleverly choosing to die
Maker of all, we kneel interceding
Fighting for your will
Father of light
Your children are pleading still
Prince of Peace, come and reign
Set Your feet on the mountaintop again
Take Your throne, Rightful Lord
Prince of Peace, come and reign forevermore
There is no peace for a new generation
Living and growing in fear
There is no home in a Godless nation
Take your authority here
Maker of all, we kneel interceding
Fighting for Your will
Father of light
Your children are pleading still
Prince of Peace, come and reign
Set Your feet on the mountaintop again
Take Your throne, Rightful Lord
Prince of Peace, come and reign forevermore
Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done
Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done
Prince of Peace, come and reign
Set Your feet on the mountaintop again
Take Your throne, Rightful Lord
Prince of Peace, come and reign forevermore
Prince of Peace, come and reign forevermore
