Live for the Kingdom

This is a song we sing at the church I go to on Sunday mornings. It's a song to encourage and excite us to live for God; to repent and believe, to follow Him in everything, to fight and sacrifice, to love and care for one another, to carry our cross, to be strong, to bless and to seek God's righteousness, to pray the Lord's prayer each day and ask for God's strength while living on earth so we will work toward The Day when sin and death will pass away. 
There's so much in it to make you think about life as a Christian. How am I living? For the Kingdom??
1. Hear the good news, repent and believe
Follow the Saviour and everything leave
Taking the yoke that’s easy and light
Dressed for the battle, equipped for the fight
Learn from the master to sacrifice all
Gladly obeying his call
Chorus
Now is the moment, the day of the salvation
This is the hour to be serving the king
Bearing the gospel, go to the nations
Now is the time for our tribute to bring
And live for the kingdom
And give God the glory and honour and praise
Live for the kingdom, all of our days
2. Love one another, care for the lost
Learn to live simply and carry your cross
Jesus is near, so stand and be strong
Lift up your hearts in the victory song
When you’re mistreated, be certain to bless
Seeking his righteousness
3. Learn to pray daily - Your kingdom come
And may your will on this earth soon be done
Forgive our sins as we forgive
Strengthen us while in these bodies we live
So we might work for that glorious day
When sin and death pass away
