I believe that this song touches on the main concern of every person in modern life: death, possessions, and hunger. John Lennon encourages us to join him in a world where there are no countries, and everybody is united, living in peace. Furthermore, he emphasizes the lines about the nonexistence of heaven and hell as he puts them first; Lennon acknowledges the only sky above us. Consequently, he implemented any person’s problems in the song and encouraged everyone to understand the happy life in the world as one. I reckon that is why this song speaks to most people at such a deep level.
The key point of the song is the imagination of the perfect world where there are no problems. John Lennon refuses to include religion, deaths, properties, and money in his ideal version of the world. The singer presents the idea that everyone should be united in the brotherhood, where people are alike and share no worries about their bright future. Overall, it seems that Lennon attempts to convince people not to be separated into groups according to their nationality, religion, and status, and support each other as one’s equals.
Even though Lennon does not include religion in his perfect world, I still do believe that Christians can admire this song. For instance, the main message of Imagine is to unite no matter what your nationality or status is, which is clearly valued by Bible. Christians believe that God wishes for them to be happy and at peace. That is why as John Lennon presents the perfect world where everyone is equal, it may speak to religious people as they admire the force of positivity and lack of greed, hunger, and especially death.
