New song

I heard a song on the radio today, it is fairly new and they DJ was predicting it to be a future hit on the Christian radio stations. I agree. I really liked this song, more than the music or this guy's voice (I've never heard of him-have you?), but the words really grabbed me. This is truly something I think more people than just me are struggling with-looking beyond oneself, seeing the people around you, really seeing them, and loving them. What a great song-go check it out! Here are the lyrics:

Give Me Your Eyes

by 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

Breath in the familiar shock

Of confusion and chaos

Are 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

Wasn't it far beyond my reach?

Give me your heart for the once forgotten

Give me your eyes so I can see

again

again

yeah

yeah

~

Step out on a busy street

See a girl and our eyes meet

Does her best to smile at me

To hide whats underneath

There's a man just to her right

Black suit and a bright red tie

To ashamed to tell his wife

Hes out of work

Hes buying time

Are those people going somewhere?

Why have I never cared?

~

Chorus

~

I've 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)
