Persuaded           

   I’m getting persuaded;

           persuaded; persuaded

  that the way to Your Kingdom is true;

  I’m beginning to see what grace was for:

   The freedom to follow You. 

It’s not, “What can I get?”;

   Rather, “Where shall We go.”;

“Get me to that place

   where health freely grows.”

That place where only the eyes of my spirit

   will be able to see;

That place where my spirt responds to His Spirit

   and takes care of the “rest” of me.

                 A Vision:

I see two little kids on a dark prison floor;

   The cell’s  growing with mold;

The stench can’t be ignored;

They’re making the best of captivity;

   But, they’re waiting and hoping:

One day they’ll be free!

There was a third child and,

   as cell’s go, his somewhat better;

not as dark and as cold;

In his hand, there’s a letter that I can see;

   The Words say: “Get up from this place

and come with Me!

   Go next door; Set those captives free!” 

He quickly responded and opened the door;

   Said, “Come, Soul and Body;

You’ll suffer no more!”

They walked out together in unity;

   the Spirit set Soul and Body free!

“We won’t look back; Just walk away;

   The Great One has told me:

It’s all been paid.”

With each step they took,

   great contentment restored;

Faith, Hope and Love

   hung over That Door; 

We all walked through in to ecstacy;

   The Realm of The Great One

now easy to see;

The Body so blessed;

   Now well and strong;

The Soul won’t stop singing

   his beautiful songs;

The Spirit’s eyes fixed

   on The Great One in awe;

   Reality’s Vision, is what I just saw!!!
