IMAGINE THAT

 IMAGINE THAT

You tell me to imagine
A world God's not in
Telling me wars will cease
That well live together in peace

Imagine, you arrogantly say
That we give everything away
As all the nations follow the horse
White as death, of course

And I tell you, I imagined that
The horror of it knocked me flat
Imagine no hope as life presses
Where our Savior never blesses

Imagine no end to man's evil greed
To take from others what you need
Imagine Christ wasn't on that Cross
That instead we are forever lost

Some things are better not imagined
Some darkness is better not fashioned
I will not dread such a dark fate
A destiny which doesn't await

Instead I'll imagine that day
When He answers all we pray
As the Trumpet gives a welcome blast
And all this pain is finally past

Imagine in His presence we stand
Secure at last in His hand
And peace we seek, meets us at
The Gates of Heaven, imagine that
Amen
