I Wish
I wish…
That hearts were always open
To the hope and love and prayers
Lifted up to heaven… calling on His miracles
His marvels and wonders, the joy
That dances through the ones who know
He is light – He is love – He is the answer
To every doubt, every prayer, every dream
He is the reason that I’m breathing
He is the reason that I can believe
His grace gives me wisdom
His mercy gives me strength
His favor gives me the victory
So that I can always find solutions
I wish…
That souls were willing to listen
To the tenderness, the affection
The joy that delights in His gifts of the spirit
Wonderful lights, like stars in the night…
Twinkling with joy, imagination and inspiration
Freeing souls from the darkness, the shadows
That fall across spirits who don’t believe
In the brilliant rays of His truth, His grace
Pouring out joy, serenity and contentment
Into the ones who trust in His gift
The Son who brought light to a dark world
The Son who lifted hearts from the dirt
To shine like the morning sun, the Son
Who knows that love is the greatest gift of all
I wish…
Everyone could feel the love that He brings
To those who will listen to His gentle whispers
His still, small voice… assuring hearts and souls
That His blood is liquid hope, poured out so we know
He brings freedom to those who are imprisoned
He brings victory to those who were failing
He brings peace to those who were anxious
He brings light to those who were living in darkness
He brings God into hearts who were once hard!
I wish….
His love, His spirit, would fill you…
…through and through!
