Picturing Your Future

Art for Picturing Your Future

The Story

A father's blessing over his children is a gift many never receive — yet Scripture is full of that pattern. Children are a heritage from the Lord. We speak His blessing over them the way Israel's fathers did, and we charge them to walk worthy of God. This song is my blessing over my two sons (Issac and Aaron): May the Lord designs their path and save them as they help others. The good news is that the God who shepherds us all our life long can bless the next generation when we entrust them to Him.

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I’m picturing your future, and oh it shines so bright Full of purpose, full of strength, walking in the light I promise you my presence every step along the way I value who you are, my child, more than words can say! [Verse 2] I place a hand upon your head, I speak it clear and true There’s a noble path ahead that God designed for you You’re a refuge in the storm, a rock where friends can lean The greatest story that this world has ever seen [Chorus] I’m picturing your future, and oh it shines so bright Full of purpose, full of strength, walking in the light I promise you my presence every step along the way I value who you are, my child, more than words can say! [Bridge] Touch to heal the wounded heart, words to build the soul Living out a commitment that will make our family whole! [Chorus] I’m picturing your future, and oh it shines so bright Full of purpose, full of strength, walking in the light I promise you my presence every step along the way I value who you are, my child, more than words can say! [Outro] More than words can say! Yeah, walk in the light!
