I want to be a beacon

 A Lighthouse in the dark

 guiding people to safety, 

 a candle-lighting spark.

I want to be a city on a hill

 that all who see me may know

 what is God's perfect will

I don't want to be hid

 though they'll seek to crucify me

I want to die to live

 like my Lord at Calvary

 sacrificing all I am

 for all I can be

 as I follow the Lamb

 who dearly loves me

 Such a lovely

 countryside 

 Trees and rivers

 and blue sky

Rice paddies

 pass me by

Garden after garden

 well-organized

Korea is

 pleasing to the eye!

Someday soon

The great divide

 will be a memory

 we've consigned 

 to the history books

 for our children to read about.

Peace will rule

 and peace will reign

 where wrath and fear

 once held sway

Oh my beloved Korea  - be One today!

Love and forgive 

 for this

 will heal the rift

 Man makes his own thunder

 creates machines in which he can fly,

 soaring like gods through the sky

 but birds - God's natural flight

 produce no pollution  - noise or otherwise. 

GOD'S WAYS ARE BETTER

Man makes his concoctions 

 Soft drinks they're called

Compared to juice or water,

 frankly I'm appalled:

extremely unhealthy compared to what comes from God:

GOD'S WAYS ARE BETTER 

Let's look at concrete:

 an eyesore and hard on the feet

Starts to crumble,  starts to crack,

 not nearly as pleasant as grass,

GOD'S WAYS ARE BETTER 

Man tries hard to save himself 

 believes he is righteous without any help

Calls evil good, and good evil - chooses hell

God looks upon them so arrogant and lost

 and lies down upon the Cross

GOD'S WAYS ARE BETTER...

 If I'm praising You, always rejoicing in You,

 then I'm too busy to notice,  too distracted to notice, 

 the fallen flesh all around me.

I choose to focus on Your risen flesh, Jesus.

Your holy flesh, rather than wicked, rebellious,  unholy flesh,

 which I'm often surrounded with.

I choose to notice Your wonders, not their blunders.

In the light of Your face - all else grows strangely dim.

Your perfection,  not their sin, is my recollection. 

I'm focusing on You Father!

This day is extraordinary because You are with me,

 pregnant with purpose  - anything can happen, and often does!
