“Through God’s Eyes”
Intro: C
Verse 1
Ol’ Jim, he lived on the edge of town
He’d walk the streets from mornin’ to sundown
We all knew his
name but we called him “
Crazy”
He’d pick up cans just to get by
Doin’ what he could to survive
Had an ol’ dog that never l
eft his side he called “
Daisy”
The whole town warned me,
”Stay away from h
im”
I used to wonder who was bett
er – t
hose people or J
im
Chorus
‘Cause if the
world is round and we all breathe air
We all laugh and we all get scared
We all
have our
share of good and
bad times
Yeah we’ve a
ll got a heart, we’ve all got a soul
And on the
day that we’re born we all start to grow old
Think about it,
it really comes as
no surprise
We all look the
same through
God’s eyes
Verse 2
Bill, he’s sittin’ on cell block five
Killed a man for messin’ with his wife
Probably gonna spend the
rest of his life in
prison
When he put that ring on Delilah’s hand
He never thought she’d find another man
He never dreamed that he’d
have to make that d
ecision
When he f
ired those shots did he
buy himself a ticket to h
ell
I don’t t
hink Heaven’s any further
away from a ch
urch than a j
ail cell
(Repeat Chorus)
Bridge
A wino livin’ in an old Dodge van
A preacher with a Bible in his hand
A long-haired guitar
picker in a hillbilly
band
As far as He’s concerned
There ain’t much difference you
see
Between Jim, the preacher, th
e wino, and Bill and
me
(Repeat Chorus)
Yeah through
God’s eyes
