Rich Mullins - ‘Maker of Noses’ 
I believe there is a place
where people live in perfect peace
where there is food on every plate
where work is rewarded and rest is sweet
where the color of your skin
won’t get you in or keep you out
where justice reigns and truth finally wins
it’s hard fought war against fear and doubt
and everyone I know wants to go there too
but when I ask them how to do it they seem so confused
do I turn to the left
do I turn to the right
when I turn to the world they just gave me this advice
They said boy just follow your heart
but my heart just lead me into my chest
they said follow your nose
but the direction changed every time I went and turned my head
they said boy you just follow your dreams
but my dreams were only misty notions
but the Father of hearts and the Maker of noses
and the giver of dreams He’s the one I have chosen
and I will follow Him
