Do You See Me?

Do you see me?

Yes, Oh, you do?

So you do see me?

Yes, you see me. 

You see me because

You want to see me

Because we see

What we want to see.

But sometimes we have to see

What we don't want to see

To see what we need to see.

Because what we need to see

Will show us the

Changes that need to be changed

And the mistakes

That do not need to be made.

Now, do you see me?

Do you see

The difference between

Wrong and right?

The difference between

The willingness to have peace

And the willingness to fight?

Do you see the poverty

All around us

And the falling of the economy?

Do you see the sin

Running through this world,

Running out and running in?

Do you see the

Little bit of truth left

Behind all the lies?

Because I don't see it.

That is what I don't see

With these eyes.

What I do not see

Is hope for this world,

If hope could ever be.

But what I do see

Is my hope for Jesus Christ

Coming back for me

Saying,"Come home, my child,

For I have a palace for thee." 

All that is left to see

Is Jesus coming back

At the end of this eternity.

But the question is this:

When will we see?
