Analysis of CRYSTAL CLEAR

Barry Green Jr 1973 (Florida)



Tossed in the storm
Cold but also warm.
Life meeting death
Underwater breath
Strange as it seems
Living man's dark dreams

Life well, it is a story
Let's give God Glory
Tomorrow that we can't see
A hope of all we'll be
Because dreams come true
When our dream is You

I tell who I am and was
Knowing myself because
Through my path I see
 The steps that You led me
The road is Chrystal clear
That led me right hear

Let my life so shine
That the lost may find
The answer to Mans loss
Is found in the Cross
Love so amazing so true
That is only found in you
AMEN

About this poem

For now we see only a reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known. 1Corinthians 13:12
