I Dreamt Of Another World

I had fallen asleep and in my dream the lord came to me. I said a prayer which I thought wasn’t heard I said a prayer but he kept his word. In the dream he spoke with me, and said: I listen to all prayers far and near Of that my child have no fear. When nations start to rise up to me Famine and destruction will no longer be. The greatest of nations will fall to the ground The cries of freedom will then resound. Thousands of years have gone by And man still doesn’t give freedom a try. Now I must repeat history once again. Will this destruction ever end? I will not use locust or turn the water red Through that path I did tread. I am now giving you earthquakes, winds, and fire Although this is not my desire. But what must I do to open your eyes Other things I did try. Now the uprisings is the course I choose Some will win, many will lose. In my dreams things were falling in place No more wars “ not a trace”. No more hunger - no more despair People working together- they truly cared. They were greeting each other with smiles on their faces Not just here, but in different places. I awoke from this dream with exhilaration In my soul- if this could happen “What a wonder to behold.” But this was just a dream of things that could be “If man really wanted to be free.”
