Heaven's Dreams Surround Us In Love

[I wrote this after the first time I saw the video Easter Dream. It had such an impact upon my soul that I had to write what I was feeling. Hope you enjoy the music videos when you click on the photos!)

I Dreamed A DREAM


Last night I dreamed a dream of old; The scenes of the Gospel told;
I dreamed I saw Him on the Mount, His arms held out to the crowd.

He blessed and fed two fish and bread 
While they pondered the words that He said. 
And then He turned and looked at me-  I could hardly believe my eyes!


The Son of God knew who I was   And beckoned me to His side. 
My faith fulfilled with-in my sleep;  Yet, how real as I knelt at His feet.

He is my Friend, my Savior.


In reverence flowed my tears of love.  He is my Lord, My God.


I thank Thee Father up above   For blessings given, answered prayers, 

Forgiveness through Him – my Redeemer.

And then I dreamed again a dream   Of Calvary – so it seemed.   I saw Him nailed upon the Mount,  His arms held out to the crowd.  With love He spake to those who cried, Who stood below as He died. 

But, first He turned and looked at me – I could hardly believe my eyes!


The Son of God knew who I was  And beckoned me to His side.   My faith fulfilled with-in my sleep;  Yet, how real as I knelt at His feet.

He is my Friend, my Savior.  In reverence flowed my tears of love.  He is my Lord, My God.

I thank Thee Father up above   For blessings given, answered prayers,


Forgiveness through Him – my Redeemer.


And then the third time dreamed again.  I found His tomb and went with-in.  Then turned and saw Him clothed in White.  His arms held to calm my fright.


I saw His wounds and touched His hands.  His death was real – now He stands!


And then He turned to look at me – 
I could hardly believe my eyes!


The Son of God knew who I was

And beckoned my to His side.

My faith fulfilled. I know He Lives!


And I knelt at His feet  (Washed clean with my tears.)  He is my Friend, my Savior. In reverence flowed my tears of love.


He is my Lord, My God.

I thank Thee Father up above  For blessings given, answered prayers,  Forgiveness through Him – my Redeemer.




Our INSPIRATIONAL FAMILY thought for today comes from Joseph Fielding McConkie when speaking about the Twelve Witnesses of Christ's Birth:  "We know that he dreamed dreams and received instructions from angels. He displayed unquestioning obedience in taking Mary, already carrying a child, as his wife after “the angel of the Lord appeared unto him in a dream, saying, Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife: for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Ghost” (Matt. 1:20)."
