Lyrics
GOD?S EYES - Bonnie Warren
When I was growing up. There was a long haired man
He lived down our (the) block, And always lent a hand
They said he had his father?s soul, (And) his mother?s smarts
The power of Goliath, And little David?s heart
Chorus:
(And he had ) God?s Eyes, cuz he could see
the good in everyone (- or- Goodness in everyone) n? Anyone in need
With just a gentle look, he could soothe a baby?s cries
He seemed to watch us - with God?s eyes
When Mr. Franklin?s roof Was leaking like a sieve
He was the first one there, To bang those shingles in
When Sue and Tommy?s car crashed On the Avenue downtown
Somehow he was right there, And helped to pull them out
Chorus:
(He had) God?s Eyes cuz He could see
The Good in everyone n? Anyone in need (anyone?s needs)
With just a gentle look, he could calm a troubled mind
He seemed watch us - with God?s eyes
Bridge:
I think of him often , now?s one of those times
I?m bringing meals to shut-ins on my morning drive
I wonder if I knew him so I could learn to see
That I can make a difference and I don?t need feathered wings
Chorus:
(I look with) God?s Eyes And I see The good in everyone n? anyone in need
I took a hard look in the mirror, and a deeper one inside
It?s amazing what you see with God?s eyes
