Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Love is the place we're from
You and I
You and I
You and I
We'll sing till Kingdom come
Love is the place we're from
You and I
You and I
You and I
We'll sing till Kingdom come
We'll sing till Kingdom come
We'll sing till Kingdom come
We'll sing till Kingdom come
We'll sing till Kingdom come
We'll sing till Kingdom come
We'll sing till Kingdom come
We'll sing till Kingdom come
We'll sing till Kingdom come
Come and see the difference
In signifigant distance
Between our current existence
and who we crave to be
Something we've been missing
Maybe even resisting
Is a deliverance vison
Of who we're made to be
So I'm hoping
Singing praises
Closer to Home
You sing our Grandmothers stories
Our Grandfathers glories
Without a smile in the sky (?)
Seek a little more of who we are
We'll sing of today and tomorrow
Our joys and are sorrows
And when the world looks up (?)
We'll sing till Kingdom come
We'll sing till Kingdom come
We'll sing till Kingdom come
We'll sing till Kingdom come
Come and see conditions
Of Identiny's mission
All lost in constant transition
Of who I claim to be
Something I've been missing
Is a humble position
Of getting vision
From the One who game a name to meSo I'm hoping
Singing praises
Closer to Home
You sing our Grandmothers stories
Our Grandfathers glories
Without a smile in the sky (?)
Seek a little more of who we are
We'll sing of today and tomorrow
Our joys and are sorrows
And the world will fall (?)
We'll sing till Kingdom come
We'll sing till Kingdom come




We'll sing till Kingdom come
We'll sing till Kingdom come

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Joel Ansett's "Kingdom Come" express a sense of longing to be in a better place, a place of love and fulfillment. The idea that love is the place they are from suggests that it is something fundamental to their existence, a core part of their identity. The repetition of the phrase "You and I" reinforces this sense of interconnectedness and belonging. The idea of singing "till Kingdom come" suggests a persistence and dedication to reaching this ideal state of being.


The second verse speaks to the struggle to find identity and purpose in life. The line "All lost in constant transition/Of who I claim to be" expresses a sentiment of feeling lost or uncertain about one's place in the world. However, the hope and belief that there is a greater purpose and a divine plan for each person is expressed through the line "Of getting vision/From the One who gave a name to me."


Overall, "Kingdom Come" is a song about seeking love, identity, and purpose in life, and the hope that there is a better state of being waiting to be achieved.
