If We Would See
If we could but draw back the veil to see what's truly there
Then we would not be hesitant to stay all day in prayer
From waking in the morning to the setting of the sun
We'd seek our God for guidance to be just like Him as one
One in our thoughts and motives one in all we say and do
To light this world in darkness with the Light that's bright and true
That's emanating constantly to those who read His Word
For all who will to listen that His message might be heard
His message of salvation that's far more than what we know
That also has a warning for the ones who choose to sow
Discord among the brethren through the lies of their deceit
That will not to be guided by the cross to Jesus' feet
That long to be important in the eyes of other men
Who hold to pride and prejudice and other deadly sins
Who will not be instructed by the Spirit of the Lord
And think themselves to vital to exist in one accord
With those who in obedience hold fast to who they are
The people of God's choosing come together from afar
From every reach and region of this earth to move as one
Abandoned to Christ's righteousness to glorify God's Son
For as God's plan has taught us our salvation is not free
But cost our God the greatest Price for our iniquity
A Price taken for granted by to many in His church
Who think they have the answers though they never truly search
His truth out like a treasure hidden in a farmer's field
Who willingly gave all he had to see what it would yield
And when he saw it's bounty could not hold his Gift inside
But ran to share his blessing with his brethren far and wide
The way we are instructed to dig deep within God's Word
To share His precious words of truth that cannot be detoured
But will by grace effect the change that all the world might see
The power of salvation that transforms both you and me
To be just like our Saviour in all things we say and do
To share His precious words of Truth with those He brings us to
As time is quickly fleeting like down feathers on the wind
And God's last call to all the world will meet its final end
Matthew 13:31-44
