Give Me Your Eyes
Brandon Heath

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 tile
Hold on for the sudden stop
Breathe in the familiar shock
Of confusion and 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
The ones that are far beyond my reach?
Give me your heart for the ones forgotten
Give me your eyes so I can see again again

Step out on a busy street
See a girl and our eyes meet
Does her best to smile at me
To hide whats underneath
Theres a man just to her right
Black suit and a bright red tie
To ashamed to tell his wife He's out of work
He's buying time
Are those people going somewhere?
Why have I never cared?

Chorus

Ive Been there a million times
A couple of million eyes
Just moving past me by
I swear
I never thought that I was wrong
Well I want a second glance
So give me a second chance
To see the way you see the people all alone
Chorus (x2)

This song really got me thinking. I don't really know how to explain to you what this song meant to me, but think about the words. How much better would this world be if we saw things through God's eyes? If we had His heart? I think there would be 10x less murder, hatred and such in the world. I think we all need to pray for God to give us His heart, and His eyes. God can see through our fisades. If we looked close enough, I believe we can too. And we can reach out to those who are hurting deeply, and hiding their pain from the world.
