When The Dream Never Dies -
(Michael Omartian & Stormie Omartian) -
-
Deep in my heart was an ember of longing -
Kept warm by the flame of desire -
A dream held in secret I yearned to hold openly -
Fanned by my hope into fire -
It burned to such heat I could touch it no more -
So I put it away and then closed up the door -
Forever extinguishing all that would keep it alive -
But the dream never died -
The Lord has done this for me -
He has looked on me kindly -
He has heard all my cries -
He has given me back what I laid at His feet -
It must be God -
When the dream never dies -
Isn't it just like the Lord to invite me -
To put all my dreams in His hands -
Forever releasing the grip that once held them -
Forever surrending my plans -
And then when He's certain it's not born of men -
He calls for the fire to rekindle again -
And He asks me to know in my heart -
What's not seen with my eyes -
So the dream never dies -
The Lord has done this for me -
He has looked on me kindly -
He has heard all my cries -
He has given me back what I laid at his feet -
It must be God -
When the dream never dies -
It must be God -
When the dream never dies -
