Something a little different.
A Child Will Lead Us All is an original Advent themed composition by The Orchardist.
The child born in Bethlehem has grown, been crucified, is raised; and leads us home through our ingrafting into him.

The lyrics:
The kingdom’s coming as a seed
Smaller than the eye can see
From wanting eyes to set us free, kingdom come

The kingdom’s coming as the rain
To wash away our castles vain
And cleanse the burdened heart from stain, kingdom come

The kingdom’s coming as a word
The wisest man has never heard
And foolish lips will speak the cure, kingdom come

The kingdom’s coming as a song
Mournful dirge and anthem strong
The cheer the ones who sing it wrong, kingdom come

A child will lead us all home

The kingdom comes from far away
The kingdom has no place to stay
To all who open up the door, kingdom come

The kingdom’s coming to the poor
Sons and daughters of the Lord
And all that’s lost will be restored, kingdom come

The kingdom’s coming as a feast
The finest wine for all the least
We’ll taste the broken bread of peace, kingdom come

The kingdom’s coming slow and true
Till every inch has been made new
And it will ask your life of you, kingdom come

A child will lead us all home
