Allen Thomas - More Than a Dream Lyrics

Dedicated to those who woke from their sleep
And they heard what the Lord said
See God gives visions to us
He gives dreams to us
But are we paying attention?
Salute to all my brothers & sisters who are
Shoutout Pastor Mike Neville
God gave us vision, when will we realize?
You gotta open your eyes
More than just a dream
Focus on the mission for your eternal future
Aye there's something God wants to do here
More than just a dream
Mike had a heart that's always lookin' out for others
He lived his life in humility showin' love to his brothers
Even when they did dirt & walked all over him
To Mike it wasn't bout the time wasted or even the dough that he spent
He pressed on, not saying that it was easy
But Mike had a goal of reaching the world with Jesus
He wouldn't let up or give in to compromise his vision
Knowing of his blessing this is what God intended
All about the Gospel, ain't no other life for Mike
He could've taught anything but he only took that mic for Christ
Mike's a warrior the kind that will ride for life
Lord help us see with the same eyes as Mike
To rise from the slumber of our ignorance
Your fight is the one that makes a difference
As we strive for a love that don't exist in us
It is Christ who is righteous that gives vision to us
God gave us vision, when will we realize?
You gotta open your eyes
More than just a dream
Focus on the mission for your eternal future
Aye there's something God wants to do here
More than just a dream
Can you imagine with your heart & see that there's hope
Ain't gotta have to believe it
You can keep your telescope
What's the point of being creative if you can't put it to work?
How can so many people be dead in such a live church?
See it from God's perspective it really seems wack
I'm asking where the dreams at,
Where your dreams at?
Mike's dream was simply to glorify
The Lord on high and lead more to Christ
Mike became founder of Praise Chapel Fellowship
His whole family caught his vision
Jumped up on the battleship
Sad for me to say that he passed on
Today it's over 4,000 Praise Chapels
Mike's dreams stands strong
And who the one you think they stand on?
Haven't you heard? The word stand more firm than a backbone
He's planted seeds my friend
Now let it grow rite there
You thought your dreams were pretend but they overcome the nitemares
God gave us vision, when will we realize?
You gotta open your eyes
More than just a dream
Focus on the mission for your eternal future
Aye there's something God wants to do here
More than just a dream
And a vision appeared to Paul in the night
A man of Macedonia was standing there urging him & saying
Come over to Macedonia & help us
And when Paul had seen the vision
Immediately he sought to go into Macedonia
Concluding that God had called us to preach the Gospel to them
See, church, there's a dying world out there
And God has got to put dreams in your heart
So that you can go out there and preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ
Let's go
