A billion birds and Bibles all around the world,
A billion eyes all picking the I's out of the words;
A billion dollars for a ship or planes or a building,
A billion people wanting money for their business.
.
A billion cars on the road all being driven around,
A billion in gold bars bullion dug from underground;
A billion kids at school, around the whole wide world,
A billion fish in the ocean all good to eat and worth.
.
A billion letters in the mail all to open and read,
A billion people loving all of which God must lead;
A billion hearts all beating living out under the sun,
A billion souls all waiting for the return of the one.
.
A billion breaths breathing in hope of things to come,
A billion with a vision for The Christ the risen son;
A billion with understanding with faith they live on,
A billion with wisdom of what will be and has shone.
.
A billion with the knowledge of things of the past,
A billion with restraint, holding on to what will last;
A billion going to heaven and a billion into hell,
A billion undecided and not either sick or well.
.
A billion for the balance and the figures to work out,
A billion in the bank that we cannot deny or doubt;
A billion in India and China and cities that add up,
A billion working for the truth and lie of the cup.
.
Signed,
A possible reality.
