By Sight and By Heart

Why do we close our eyes when we pray?
Why do we choose the darkness when we cry?
Why do we shut our lids when we dream?
What happen when we open our eyes?
Reality bites?
Truth hurts?
Facts are worse than fictions?

I used to live in my own imaginary world.
I thought nothing will surpasses my dreams.
I believed my fantasies are grandeur than my realities.
I slumbered in my unfulfilled and unseen visions

Then Jesus came....
He opened my eyes...
He overcame my fear....
He held me as I walked in reality
He believed in my dreams, visions and realities

He took me out of the pit and placed me on solid rock
He crawled with me to help me see
He pulled me from invisibility to invincibility

I opened my eyes and see
The most beautiful things in life
Which are not seen, but felt by heart..
I opened my eyes and see
The reality that win over my inability
I opened my eyes and see
The Truth that has captured my vision and my reality

Only You Lord....whom I can see both with shut and opened lids. Only You Lord...whom I can see and feel with sight and heart.

By heart and sight I follow You...
The Way, Truth, Life ever more...
