i thought i'd be typical and publish this song in honour of my turning 25. its a classic, ....plus its the only one i could think of about being 25 heh....its a convicting message & it really gives insight into the simplicity & happiness of the early bretheren -in just being alive & knowing Jesus & the completely unselfish love of wanting nothing more in life than to share His love with others......thats all they wanted! its drop dead gorgeous. God bless them....they are true Greats in my books!
Verse 1:When you get to be 25?
Do you think that you'll be happy,
Or that you'll even be alive?
The future is a mystery
That only Jesus knows.
This world's headed for destruction
And the cold wind sadly blows.
Now who am I to say that life
Is really good to you?
You may not have seen the things I've seen,
But if you look you'll see them too:
Chorus:
I see sunshine in my brothers' eyes.
We are happy because we're breathin' and alive.
There is love here and we're young again.
And we just wanted to tell you that we love you.
Verse 2:
We're strangers in a strange land
This world is not our home.
We're leavin' for a better place
And you can come along.
It's not a phoney acid trip
Or traditions of the past.
It's a home of hearts we're buildin'
And it's really gonna last.
You gotta be a baby
To understand the Light.
Become as a little child
And simply open up your eyes.
We are happy because we're breathin' and alive.
There is love here and we're young again.
And we just wanted to tell you that we love you.
