Imagine by John Lennon

October 5, 2011 by Jeane George Weigel

The immortal John Lennon’s Imagine—a song for all times, a song for our time:

Imagine there’s no Heaven
It’s easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today

Imagine there’s no countries
It isn’t hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace

You may say that I’m a dreamer
But I’m not the only one
I hope someday you’ll join us
And the world will be as one

Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world

You may say that I’m a dreamer
But I’m not the only one
I hope someday you’ll join us
And the world will live as one

Love to you all,
Jeane

    Amen, lets all do some heartfelt imagining with belief in our true wholeness with the beautiful outcome of peace for all.

    And so it is.

    I’d like to add a line “Imagine there’s no heaven like the heaven you imagine”
