I Can Only Imagine
“I can only imagine”
I can only imagine how life would be
If Jesus Christ was standing here with you and me
Just shooting the breeze and cracking jokes
Informing his people not to give up hope
Telling the “g’z” to get off the road they on
Put his hand on their heart and the pain is gone
No more hanging on to the devils’ lies
Dophines kick addictions because they realize
I can only imagine how life would be
If I didn’t hear gun shootings down my street
And all the gangs in this world would finally give up all their beef
If woman would quit selling their body’s
Or a disagreement wouldn’t end in violence
If they gave people in prison a 2nd chance instead of letting them die in riots
I can only imagine how life would be
If every family could live happily
Kids love their parents, parents love their kids
And they didn’t know what abuse or divorice is
Or what it was and this is all because
We had open hearts to receive Gods’ love
I can only imagine how life would be
If no one had suicidal tendencies
Instead of feeling alone and all unloved
Someone would reach out to them and give them a hug
And all the tears that we cried is because of feeling joy inside
The deaf could hear the blind could see and all the sinners would walk the line
I can only imagine how life would be
If everybody had food to eat
And I didn’t have to see my brothers and sisters living on the street
We all had clothes to wear and a place to stay
Wake up with the feeling everythings ok
Get on our knees and start to pray
Praising the lord for another day
I can only imagine how life would be
If we wouldn’t be tricked by lust and greed
Warnings of the bible we would all take heed
Non believers would fully believe
We would feed our seed so our faith would grow
And didn’t have to feel like this world was so cold
I can only imagine!!!
