Lord, Thy Kingdom! Comp; C.F. Witt,(1660-1716) Played by Rev. Winfred L.Nartey-Graham.

“Lord, Thy Kingdom!” is a classic Christian hymn that reflects the Church’s prayer for the growth, purity, and triumph of God’s reign on earth. The tune is attributed to Christian Friedrich Witt (1660–1716), a German Baroque composer and church musician whose melodies were written to support strong congregational singing. Witt’s music is marked by clarity, balance, and reverence, qualities that make it especially fitting for hymns centered on devotion and hope in God’s eternal rule. In this rendition, the hymn is brought to life on the organ by Rev. Winfred L. Nartey-Graham, whose interpretation highlights the hymn’s stately and prayerful character. Through thoughtful registration and expressive phrasing, the organ accompaniment reinforces the text’s call for spiritual renewal and faithful service. His performance connects the historic depth of Witt’s composition with contemporary worship, allowing the hymn to continue inspiring congregations today. Lyrics 🎶 1. LORD, Thy kingdom bring triumphant, Give this world Thy liberty, May Thy Spirit's strong compulsion Rule our tides of energy: 2. Where the vessel cleaves the ocean, Or the pilot steers his plane, Where the miner toils in darkness, And the farmer sows the grain. 3. Consecrate Thy people's labour At the airfield, mill and port; With the gladness of Thy presence Bless our homes and grace our sport. 4. Let Thy mercy and Thy wisdom Rule our courts and parliament, And to soldier, sage and scholar May Thy light and truth be sent. 5. By the pioneer's endeavour, By the word of printed page, By the martyr's dying witness, And Thy saints in every age: 6. By the living voice of preacher, By the skill of surgeon's hand, By the far borne broadcast tidings Speaking peace from land to land: 7. Lord, Thy kingdom bring triumphant, Visit us this living hour, Let Thy toiling, sinning children See Thy kingdom come in power. Beautifully played by Rev. Winfred Lomotey Nartey-Graham.
