Vision - Poem

sunglasses with blue lens set in sand by ocean


We can look at the world through new eyes when we realize the glory and power of Jesus’ resurrection. As our outlook on life is transformed through the Word of God, we can joyfully bring the hope of Christ to a broken and hurting world.

Vision. 

In case you didn’t notice

It’s where hope is 


It starts in the heart

Instead of the eyes

For some that revelation is a big surprise


But you’ve gotta realize

That seeing isn’t always believing 

No, that idea is so deceiving 


Look and see

Where faith starts

In the eyes of your heart


Take a look at this chart

Letters and numbers

It’s got 66 books full of letters with Numbers


Yeah, hold it tight

Deep in your heart

It’ll be your guiding light when you’re lost in the dark


What is true vision? 

Learning how to live like Jesus has risen


That’s our mission 

Taking the gospel to the nations

Proclaiming to all the message of salvation


Look what grace is

Laying down His life for us all

Now all we gotta do is respond to His call


That is vision

Viewing the world in light of His incision 

That’s precision 


And it’s not wishing

I hope you listen

Cause Jesus made heroes out of some boys that were fishing


He takes ordinary people 

And upgrades them like a sequel 

He is building up His Church to stand tall like a steeple 


Yes, you’ll have new eyes

When you realize 

That the secret to real living is actually demise

For each and every one of us 

Jesus was despised


Despised and rejected

So we could be fully connected


Children, you are accepted 

Heirs to the throne

Keep running with endurance till you make it home


You’re never alone

Forgotten or abandoned 

Keep adhering closely to all that He commanded


Cause one day

Heaven and earth will fade away

But the words He spoke are forever here to stay


You’ve got vision

In case you didn’t notice

So go into all the world

And show them who your Hope is
