Can you spare some change is what I heard him say
|
At the light, so I dug through my ashtray
|
My good deed today changed my life
|
I thought I knew it all, quick to right him off
|
Looked like he was lost till I heard him speak
|
Now I've heard that voice before knew that it was yours
|
He said you loved me more than I even believed
|
|
People judge from what they see
|
But Lord, you see the whole world
|
|
If we had Your eyes
|
We'd see things right
|
If we could just see from Your point of view
|
Then most things won't be as they seem
|
If we had Your eyes
|
If we had Your eyes
|
|
I had the perfect day is what she says to me all the time
|
She's so beautiful, nothing's ever wrong in her life
|
Yeah, that's what I thought till I saw the scars she cut in her eyes
|
She was hiding from me
|
She never said a word and all I said to her is that
|
That you could ever believe
|
|
People judge from what they see
|
But Lord you see the whole world
|
|
If we had Your eyes
|
We'd see things right
|
If we could just see from Your point of view
|
The most things won't be as they seem
|
If we had Your eyes
|
If we had Your eyes
|
|
Show me, teach me, I don't see clearly
|
Living the spirit ain't cool
|
We be able to show love the way that You love us
|
If we could see like You
|
If we had Your eyes
|
If we had Your eyes
|
|
If we had Your eyes
|
We'd see things right
|
We'd see things right
|
If we could just see from Your point of view
|
The most things won't be as they seem
|
If we had Your eyes
|
If we had Your eyes
|
|
God, if I had Your eyes
|
I could love better, have more compassion
|
And I would understand what I'm going through while I'm going through
|
I'd be more patient
|
God help me to see things the way you see things
|
Did I already say help me to be patient?
|
I'll say that again, wow
|
Give us your eyes, God
|
