I'm laying down my crown,
Yes, I'm laying down my crown,
Lord, I'm laying it down and praying, "Let your will be done,"
Lord, I'm laying down my crown to let the kingdom come.

'Cause I'm so tired and weary,
Yes, I'm so tired and weary,
Lord, I'm weary and hurting from the backbreaking burden of my crown,
My soul is bone-weary,
Oh, let the kingdom come.

Well, I crowned myself king,
Yeah, I crowned myself king,
But I didn't see the trouble, the heartache and the sorrow it would bring, oh,
Now I'm broken and willing, and looking for my king.

King of glory, enter in, and sear my heart with love's burning flame,
Oh, let your will be done,
Oh Lord, let the kingdom come.

Oh, I'm laying down my crown,
Let the kingdom come.

Whoa, whoa, let the kingdom come,
Whoa, whoa, let the kingdom come.

Whoa, whoa, let the kingdom come,
Whoa, whoa, let the kingdom come,
Whoa, whoa, let the kingdom come.
