I Can Only Imagine

Submitted by on February 4, 2008 – 8:53 amOne Comment

There are Christian videos developed that accurately complement the lyrics sung and there are some that aren’t directly related to the artist’s words.

One video that has caught my attention is the Mercy Me, I Can Only Imagine broadcast, a powerful, heart stirring visual illustration of what the group wants viewers to take away from the song.

By itself, I Can Only Imagine beckons listeners to think about heaven, what it will be like to be in the Savior’s presence, and how foreign that experience really is to us. Sure, I know Christians who seem to have “seventh heaven” experiences every now and then, but for most followers of Jesus Christ our lives are greatly influenced by what goes on in this earthly realm.

The video, on the other hand, extends this thinking to include our being reunited with those who have gone before us. Most certainly, we’ll behold our Lord face to face but we’ll also see those who have died in the Lord, loved ones whom we miss terribly and yearn to see again.

Without spoiling the video, I can tell you that the part where the father is holding a young child’s cap did it for me. Please allow the Holy Spirit to touch you personally through the words and this video:
