Vision

Vision of Fire and Youth

Six o'clock and rain is pounding
Arms are raised in supplication
A great sound rises in our hearts
Thickening the air around us

Fire leaps within our bones
Trumpet cries are released
And the horn blows a final sound!
The army of God is on its knees

A warehouse filled with youth
As drums beat out the songs of war
Dancing as conquered kings
Our God, we worship, we adore!

Nine o'clock and drums are pounding
Hearts are surrendered to our God
Holiness is present, evident, here!
Let the Spirit be upon us now!

Peace and mercy, grace pour out
As the Spirit falls upon us all
And as One, rising to our feet
We give a glorious, resounding call!

The house is shaken with the sound
The glory rising up from within
As God the Father smiles down
And sees us wholly praising him

Twelve am and hearts are pounding
The presence of Jesus fills us up
Each life, each Spirit firmly joining
Unity, the wine inside our cup

We gaze heavenward in expectation
Waiting upon our God and King
And with one voice in supplication
We declare his eternal victory!

Shock-waves send us to the floor
Our bodies filled with golden light
Heads bowed in fear of the LORD
We witness our God in his might!

Three am and rain is pounding
The glory of the LORD all around us
We bask in the warmth and fellowship
And smile at each other in joy

For this night of worship is like no other
Never before have we been so awed
So bathed in the goodness of our Father
As we worship him in truth and love

Now as morning rises with the Son
Healing in his wings
Full of the experience of his presence
We go home to our families

Six am and feet are pounding
Door to door the youth are running
Jesus Christ is LORD! Is LORD!
The Messengers have been commissioned.

I can't wait.
