Can You Imagine ~



Can you imagine,
 a world without tears
 void of the darkness
 that fuels human fears?

Can you imagine,
 a world without sorrow
 empty of the anguished
 heartache of tomorrow?

Can you imagine,
 a world without evil
 gone the trepidation
 from terror's upheaval?

Can you imagine,
 a world without hate
 free from animosity
 the need to retaliate?

Can you imagine,
 a world without fears
 can you imagine . . .
 a world without tears?

Revelation 21.4

"And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes;
  and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow,
  nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain:
  for the former things are passed away."

The Joy of Knowing Jesus ~

There's nothing quite like,
the joy of knowing Jesus
how in every circumstance
He is always with us.

No matter the situation,
Jesus is always there
our happiness is in knowing
our burdens He will bear.

In times of want and need,
whatever be our condition
our gladness is in knowing
He'll supply each provision.

When feeling overwhelmed,
by so many troubling things
our peace comes from knowing
the joy ~ Jesus brings!
