If We Had Your Eyes - Michelle Williams

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 write him off

Looked like he was lost, til 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

(If we had Your eyes)

We’d see things right

(If we had Your eyes)

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

Until I saw the scars she cut in her arm

That she was hiding from me

She never said a word

And all I said to her is that

You love her more than she could ever believe

People judge from what they see

But Lord you see the whole world

If we had Your eyes

(If we had Your eyes)

We’d see things right

(If we had Your eyes)

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)

Show me, teach me, how to see clearly

Live in the spirit, and truth

We’d be able to show love

The way that You love us

(If we could see like You)

Oh uh oh oh oh

If we had Your eyes

If we had Your eyes

If we had Your eyes

(If we had Your eyes)

We’d see things right

(If we had Your eyes)

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)

God if I had Your eyes

I could love better and

Have more compassion and

I could understand what I’m going through

While I’m going through

I’d be more patient

God help me to see things the way that you see things

Did I already say help me to be patient?

Say that again

Give us Your eyes God
