If I'd Never Seen
If I'd never seen an answered prayer,
I'd just keep praying even more;
I know whatever God does is best
As He leads me to heaven's shore.
If I'd never seen a dream come true,
I'd keep on dreaming anyway;
I don't have to see a sign to know
Miracles happen every day.
If I'd never seen a single sheep
Brought into the glorious fold,
I'd just keep on sowing gospel seed
Till my Shepherd's face I behold.
If I'd not seen a beautiful rose
Among the thorns of test and trial,
I'd still want to live and love and give,
Praising my Saviour all the while.
I've seen so many answers to prayer,
My Lord has always brought me through,
And so many of the dreams I've dreamed
Have miraculously come true.
I've seen souls brought into the Kingdom
As we've sown precious gospel seed;
I've enjoyed the beauty of roses,
My God has more than met my need!
But If I'd Never Seen anything...
I'd still worship my precious Lord;
I would give Him Glory every day
And just depend upon His Word;
I'd sing and shout and I'd praise His Name;
I'd trust Him, pray, and even dream,
And reaching out to needy souls...
I'd smell the roses never seen.
"Jesus saith unto him, Thomas, because thou hast seen me,
thou hast believed: blessed are they that have not seen,
and yet have believed."
(John 20:29)
