Lyrics:

Jesus walked upon the earth,

On the shores of Galilee,

He'd say to His disciples,

Let the little children come to me,

I wonder if up in heaven,

Do you suppose we'll see

little children asking

what was I supposed to be.

What was I supposed to be,

What were my eyes supposed to see,

And why did I taste of death

before I even drew a breath,

Laid my head at my mother's breast,

to sleep.

Oh Jesus,

Was I to be a prophet

used in the ministry,

A doctor who would find a cure

for some terrible disease,

Even if I'd been born imperfect

why couldn't my parents see,

That I'd have been made perfect

when you came back for me.

Oh Jesus

Oh Jesus, what was I

supposed to be,

Oh Jesus, what was I

supposed to be.

this must be our question, truly God is great even if we are not faithful, but He still. a sinner should realize the sovereignty of God. God chose us, not that we choose Him .

something you may not know too, when babies and children go to heaven, they dont ever become angels. all of the angels are BIG MEN. there are no girl ones. and GOD made them way before he made people, and Michael is the head of all of them. really.

We the living, should also ask this question of our lives. What would God have us to do? What are we supposed to be? Our lives are so unsatisfying, because the world distracts us, and prevents us from reaching our proper potential, of what God created us for. Although, much of this greatness, is yet to come, in the hereafter.And yes, I am very pro-life, and have long stood against abortion, also against the rampant birth control pushing, that naturally leads to selfishness and abortion.

I stopped listening to Ray for a while even though I felt the anointing of the music as he sang. Then the Lord took me down memory lane I guess to find my own perfection and I could not find it. So what I realized is the fact that the battle is between Ray and the Lord, my part, is to pray for him not to judge him, God always loves us unconditionally, does not say he always likes our choices, so we have a guide book, we have a road map, guide in the Holy Spirit who strengthens us for our journey and Jesus Christ the door unto salvation and we know that is the only way, so yes we pray for those who might be weaker or fighting battles we might not understand, we might not make the same choices they made but we don't let a brother just fall and turn our backs on them, you pray for them, judge the sin not the person, God looks on the heart but ours is to pray, so I went back to listening to his music even though I wont listen to anything written since then I do know he was blessed in his spiritual music and I do feel his whole heart was in it. Those are my choices. But do I cast him out no, I pray and hope if God ever lays me on his heart he too will pray. We all have our own crosses to bear and trials to over come in one way or another.

You supposed to be a Straight man as God created you and intend you to be,Ray. God do not make a mistake when He created you. God loves you the same but hate your sins.

Hello

thanks for sharing such story... i oppose abortion 100%... and i wish we could put a total stop to abortions in the world... now, i don't judge women who have aborted in the past.. we all are sinners... however we all should have your attitude... you despise what you did..... you don't want your sins to be legalized... women who are thinking about aborting should read your comment.. instead of listening to fellow men who encourage abortion. I'm happy because you found Jesus. God bless you

Aborted children cry to God daily. At 18 and 24, I feared single parenthood! I repented. But years later, I usually had dreams of two little boys crying in front of me. I came to my full senses when in a particular dream, I saw the very boys crying in front a Throne I watched in shock!. I woke up from that dream repented with tears and sincerity. After that till now the dreams stopped! If you did it, repent and be set free. If you haven'1 done it, don't do it. It is sin. Thanks for this video.

I love this because it makes you think....you realize a little bit more the cost of ending a life .... the cures we don't have, the songs not written, the books not enjoyed, the lives not changed because of those children that would've grown up and changed the world. Thank you for this video.
