Through These Eyes

Through these eyes I've seen love and I've seen hate

I've seen the violence and the tears

Through these eyes, I got my schooling on the streets

I've seen the things in life you don't wanna see

Through these eyes I've seen the shape of things to come

and I've watched them all fall apart

Through these eyes I've seen the broken homes they cry

I've seen the poor man's face as he stands in line

chorus:

And though my heart has made me weary

On a road less travelled on

Through the heart it hurts so dearly,

and the pain it lingers on

Through these eyes, I've looked the devil in the face

and I've seen God's holy grace

Through these eyes, I've tried to walk the straighter line

I found myself again, I nearly lost my mind

chorus
