An Unexpected Vision

Bless all who sing it with me, bless all!
Bless all who sing it with me, bless all!

Now, I've heard this story told before that every blessing comes with a curse, but I don't believe that to be true. A curse is implied to be inherently evil. But blessings are not given to us with evil along for the ride, no.

Bless all who sing it with me, bless all!

Blessings must indeed have a counter, a balance in this world and this balance is more accurately called sacrifice. And sacrifice should not be seen as what some may call a necessary evil, but a worthy cost for the blessing in hand.

Bless all who sing it with me, bless all!

For the Lord may bestow upon us His will, we must trust Him, and His vision for us. It is up to us to see a blessing in what others see as curse. It is up to us to look upon sacrifice as a means to appreciate those very blessings when they occur.

Bless all who sing it with me, bless all!
Bless all who sing it with me, bless all!

Let us not forget: all that is sacred is worth sacrifice and no blessing comes without one.
God Bless.
