where my heart is

0 posted 2007-10-18 12:49 PM



Picture this: You’re on a highway Stretching as far as the eye can see
The cars are speeding by you so fast; it’s almost too hard to believe
Your foot is on the gas pedal as far as it goes down
You’re screaming for help, they don’t hear a sound
Slower and slower you fall behind the others that move farther ahead
Until finally you stop; all you can do is wait for what’s next
Suddenly you’re turned around by some one who you once knew
You see the bright path is really where no one here has moved
Slowly you build up motion toward the new shining scene
Light after light; you’re almost to the dream
Others knock you down but you get back up to finally see
Strong arms stretching out to hold your fragile body
His mighty, gentle touch brings you to tears and to your knees
Back on the highway he sets you to bring as many as you can
Back to his loving grace that fills his beautiful land
In your hearts he’s given a key to open up the unsaved souls
To bring them to his feet, he’ll pull them from the cold

Are we spreading his love to the nations?
How can we sit here letting them die each second?
Run, you precious child of God
Go, and spread his saving word

there's more to living than being alive
