No tongue have I, nor mouth, nor lips
A speech I cannot make
But if I could, the things I would say
Would long, long hours take
For I was born to fill a need
In answer to a call
And those who brought me forth to life
Have named me "Kingdom Hall".

So I have a royal name, you see
And royal was my birth,
I am here for service to a king
I hope to prove my worth.
I want so much to be just right
To suit the need I fill
To aid in serving Kingdom truth
To people of good will

Oh, give me lips and mouth and tongue
And let me tell to all
The reason I am standing here
Why I am a Kingdom Hall.
But what is a Kingdom Hall, you ask
You mean you haven't heard
Why, I am the place where all may come
And freely learn God's word.

No, I am no "church" and don't get me wrong,
I have no pews nor steeple
And never will collection plates
Be used to milk the people
The things you will hear within my walls
Will not be false tradition
You will never hear that hell is hot
For that's a contradiction.

Nor will the pagan idea of
A God who's three-in-one,
Be preached beneath my roof
Such doctrine you should shun.
But rather here inside my doors
You will hear of things reliable
Because they weill be taken from
A truthful source...The Bible.

You will learn Jehovah God intends
To rid the earth of woes,
Destroy its sorrows, sin and death,
All mankind deadly foes,
Then in thier place will blossom forth
A world of truth and love
An earth where God's will shall be done
Just as in heaven above.

There will be no sickness, pain nor death,
No tear to mar the smile
No more war will then bring grief and strife
No devil will beguile.
But all who live in that new world
Will humbly bow the knee
Before Jehovah God who reigns
In Grand supremacy.

This is just part of what you will hear
Within these walls of mine
But more than that, you will learn just how,
To make this light to shine
And that's the point I want to stress
Which may seem rather odd
That I am not built just as a place
In which to worship God.

No, here it is you will learn of God
To know what is His will
To learn what he requires of you,
His laws how to fulfill
To worship God means more than sit
it means to act, to serve, to preach
To preach to all who have not heard
Of Jehovah God's most precious word.

So that is why I said before
You worship not in me
But in your daily life you must
Jehovah's witness be
Outside my doors,
amidst the world
You just apply what you have learned
To worship God aright.

How great my joy...I want to shout
My privilege is so rare
You other buildings of the earth
Cannot with me compare.
If I could talk, I'd raise my voice
And make all buildings know
That my importance excels theirs
For from me truth will flow.

So listen, all you structures proud
You giants of steel and stone,
Your tops may scrape a passing cloud
Or soar where birds have flown.
Your cornerstone may have been laid
By worldy men of fame,
But you cannot boast that you've been made,
To praise Jehovah's name.
