My Vision

I have a hope;I have a vision,
Since my soul made a decision.
I saw the Christ once lifted high,
On Calvary's cross I heard Him cry.
'Forgive them Father was His plea.'
A thief cried out 'remember me'.
This man too just felt his sin,
The perilous state that I was in.
A history a reputation,
One who fell to each temptation.
The cloud removed I now could see,
Nailed pierced hands had set me free.
Now in Christ a new creation,
A citizen of one holy nation.
Breathing in Gods word of life,
A man of peace no longer strife.
Now risk I'll take, ignore derision,
Win men for Christ, fulfill my vision
