About the song
This is a 1995 recording that I'm adding some tracks to 14 years later...Single Heart performs it...Marty Smith, Gene and I do the vocals...it's a great song to start the new year with!
"This is a song of revival..a song of dreams"
Lyrics
Like a flower withered in the sun
With the rain begins growing
Like a dying ember takes new life from the wind
Let the Spirit breathe a breath of life
Where none is showing
Dream the dreams He's given you again

Once your life was filled with faith
And great...great expectations
Once His zeal burned in you like aflame
But past defeats and present fears
Have quinched the fires within you
Dream the dreams the flames will burn again

There is life in the vision that you carry within you
It's your strength for the mission that He's calling you to

(instumental)

There is life in the vision that you carry within you
It's your strength for the mission that He's calling you to

Set aside those shallow earthly dreams
Illusive and fleeting
Set your hearts on things that come from Him
Without a vision people perish
Never knowing healing
Dream the dreams He's given you again
Dream the dreams He's given you again
Dream the dreams He's given you again
