Imagine

.
Imagine the first waking notion
     even the next one, two or three,
When Adam and Eve came to be,
     when they first opened their eyes,
When they first saw one another,
     and the garden surrounding them,
When they first heard the Creator,
     when they first knew He made them.
Imagine how they first felt.

Imagine the first very dawning,
     even the next one, two or three,
When Joseph and Mary first saw
     the face of their little baby Jesus,
When they considered the lowly
     place where He lay His tiny head,
When they first realized they now
     beheld the face of incarnate God. 
Imagine how they first felt.

Imagine her very first surprise,
     even the next one, two or three,
When Mary found the tomb empty
     and then Jesus, a mere gardener,
When she heard her very Lord
     so sweetly say her name out loud,
When she took His naked feet,
     and bathed them in tears of joy.
Imagine how she first felt.

Imagine the very first thought
     even the next one, two or three
When the first of every eye will
     see Jesus coming, riding clouds,
When He gathers His very own,
     when He welcomes us all home,
When long at last, the time comes
     we will see God Himself face to face.
Imagine how that'll feel.

Imagine.
