We Seek Your Kingdom: a whole-life worship song

What does it mean to seek God’s kingdom right where you are?

You could be at work. Maybe you’re looking after the kids. Or seeing friends (finally). But whatever sphere of society you’re in, God can work through you to bring his kingdom there – as in heaven.

‘We Seek Your Kingdom’, a whole-life worship song to the tune of much-loved hymn ‘Abide With Me’, written by Noel Robinson, Andy Flannagan, and Graham Hunter, inspires us to see our daily tasks through God’s eyes – and live out the prayer ‘your kingdom come’ in every part of life.

Commissioned by LICC and Thy Kingdom Come, it’s an encouragement and a call to action – a declaration that each of us can join in God’s kingdom work right where we are.

And a prayer that through ordinary Christians like you and me, God would transform, revive, and heal our society.

The story behind the song

Songwriters Noel Robinson, Andy Flannagan, and Graham Hunter give us the inside track on how ‘We Seek Your Kingdom’ came to be – and their hope that it will inspire Christians across the UK to make a difference for Christ, wherever he’s placed them.
