a GLIMPSE

Here are the lyrics of another song I wrote a few years back. Enjoy!

GLIMPSE

VERSE 1: Saw a random act of kindness today and it really got my attention
In a day when violence is the daily way; this was an unusual intervention.
Two strangers with no commonalities stopped to help someone in need.
An unexplained abnormality was the sight of this noble deed. (I saw)

CHORUS A glimpse of You, a flash of glory
A burst of light in the dark.
A glimpse of You, a peek at heaven
Against the night a spark.
And how I long to have people see
A glimpse of You when they meet me.
A glimpse of You; just a glimpse of You.

Verse 2: Heard an uplifting word of affirmation today and it really got me to thinking
In an age of put downs and power plays this sight is a most brilliant blinking.
Just a little child with a caring heart said, “I wuv you” as he gave me a hug.
More than an innocent playing a part was the touch of this tiny love bug. (I caught)

CHORUS

BRIDGE: Believers are called to be reflections of You in the world
To let our light so shine as to be seen by all mankind.
Yet how can You be seen if we are indifferent or mean?
How will the light of Your love ever give sight to the blind? (They want)

CHORUS

Verse 3: Out of obscurity Jesus came one day showing acceptance, forgiveness and truth.
His life was a brief, but lasting display of how divine You are; He was the proof.
Dying on the cross a vicarious death; He wasn’t appealing to see
Yet in hearing the story one day myself, Your love became clear to me (I saw)

CHORUS
