Give Me Your Eyes






"Give Me Your Eyes" was written by Brandon Heath. Its about seeing through God’s eyes. And in the spirit of seeing, this post is more about pictures than words so you can see more of what things are like here. Click on the pictures to enlarge them.


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
Breathe in the familiar shock
Of confusion and chaos
All those people going somewhere,
Why have I never cared?

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 go far beyond my reach
Give me you heart for the ones forgotten
Give me your eyes so I can see
 
Step out on a busy street
See a girl and 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 and 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 passed 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 people all along
 
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 go far beyond my reach
Give me you heart for the ones forgotten
Give me your eyes so I can see

  1. Enjoyed the pictures! What are you doing on the concrete?! Repairing? And I love the girl with you on the motorcycle. She looks legit with the sunglasses and the stare! So excited you'll be with us soon, but relish in the time you have left there!
