Who's In the Mirror?

As I look in the mirror,
Who is it that I see?
Is it my Lord Jesus,
Or the emptiness of me?

After I walk away,
Do I still recall?
Was I standing alone,
Or did Jesus fill all?

Sometimes we forget,
Who we should be;
As we race around this world,
With all there is to see.

So as I look at,
My reflection there.
Is it the love of Jesus,
That I am ready to share?

Now I wonder if,
The reflection I see.
Is what the world views;
Jesus living through me?

So look in the mirror.
Who do you see there?
Jesus living in you,
Or just a blank stare?
