With My Mind's Eye, I Can See

With my mind's eye, I can see... With my mind's eye, I can see... everything as it should be people living together without fear, in harmony helping each other, being truly happy With my mind's eye, I can see...perfectly the world as a kindlier, gentler place to be With my mind's eye, I can see...true liberty freedom from fear, freedom from pain freedom from hypocrisy With my mind's eye, I can see...true justice for every man, woman, and child no more racial profiling, rapists or pedophiles With my mind's eye, I can see... peace and security when the hungry go from famine... to feast I can even see peace... in the Middle East With my mind's eye, I can see... an earthly paradise living forever in perfect health Why don't you give it a try?

Thanks R.A for your encouraging visit and words, with eyes of faith we can see, sadly though not the possession of many people today.

You're right, too many rely on a human source to bring a change that only God can do, and it's coming soon, we just need to endure. Thanks a lot Jo much appreciated. JDH
