Lyrics:
I wanna tell you another story
All about a woman making barley bread
Flour and water out on the table
“We need a little leaven,” she said
So, she works , she works,
she works to mix the leaven into the flour
She works, she works
She works to make the barley bread
Mama, mama, how much longer?
How much longer for the dough to rise
Oh my children, don’t you worry
We just gotta wait till the time is right
So they wait, they wait
They wait while the dough is rising rising
So they wait, they wait
They wait for the barley bread
This is a story of the Kingdom of Heaven
This is what the storyteller Jesus said
The kingdom of Heaven is just like the leaven
That worked to raise up that barley bread
So we wait, we wait, we wait while the Kingdom's coming coming
We wait, we wait, we wait while the Kingdom's coming, coming
We wait, we wait, we wait while the Kingdom's coming, coming
We wait, we wait, we wait for the Kingdom to come
We wait for the Kingdom to come
