Heaven's Eyes
by Scotty Inman

Corner of 70 South
He had a sign that said, "Can you help me out?
I'm down on my luck
And a little bit of change goes a long, long way"
But I was in a hurry
I'd seen him there a couple times before
Waited for that light to change
And took that left to the interstate
Made it 'bout half a mile
'Til I turned that truck around

I wanna see the world through Heaven's eyes
I wanna know the heart
Behind the person right in front of me
Who they are and what they need
Don't wanna let a moment pass me by
Don't wanna miss what might be in disguise
No, I ain't perfect but I'm gonna try
To see the world through Heaven's eyes

Standing in a checkout line
Single mom and two kids cryin
It ain't hard to tell
It's just one of those days
A couple dollars short
Puttin' back things she can't afford
Man, if we only knew
What she's goin' through

I wanna see the world through Heaven's eyes
I wanna know the heart
Behind the person right in front of me
Who they are and what they need
Don't wanna let a moment pass me by
Don't wanna miss what might be in disguise
No, I ain't perfect but I'm gonna try
To see the world through Heaven's eyes
To see the world through Heaven's eyes

I'm so quick to judge
Lord, help me be quick to love
Make me more like You

I wanna see the world through Heaven's eyes
I wanna know the heart
Behind the person right in front of me
Who they are, what they need
Don't wanna let a moment pass me by
Don't wanna miss what might be in disguise
No, I ain't perfect but I'm gonna try
'Til I see the other side
To see the world through Heaven's eyes
To see the world through Heaven's eyes
