What if we could see like Jesus did...through God's eyes? It's a beautiful thought...and a challenge...
Looked down from a broken sky
Traced out by the city lights
My world from a mile high
Best seat in the house tonight
Touched down on the cold black top
Hold on for the sudden stop
Breath in the familiar shock
Of confusion & chaos
All those people going somewhere,
Why have I never cared?
Chorus:
Give me your eyes for just one second
Give me your eyes so I can see
Everything that I keep missing
Give me your love for humanity
Give me your arms for the broken hearted
Ones that are far beyond my reach.
Give me your heart for the ones forgotten
Give me your eyes so that I can see
Step out on a busy street
See a girl & our eyes meet
Does her best to smile at me
To hide what's underneath
There's a man just to her right
Black suit & a bright red tie
Too ashamed to tell his wife
He's out of work
He's buying time
All those people going somewhere
Why have I never cared?
I've been there a million times
A couple of million eyes
Just moving past me by
I swear I never thought I was wrong
Well I want a second glance
So give me a second chance
To see the way you see people all along
