A few weeks ago one of our soloist at Southside sang a song that really touched my heart. I asked them for the words and thought I would share them with you.
A fervent prayer rose up to Heaven.
A fragile soul was losing ground.
Sorting through the earthly babble, Heaven heard the sound.
This was a life of no distinction, no successes, only tries.
Yet gazing down on this unlovely one, there was love, in Heaven's eyes.
In Heaven's eyes, there are no losers; In Heaven's eyes, no hopeless cause.
Only people like you with feelings like me, amazed by the grace we can find in Heaven's eyes.
The orphan child, the wayward father, the homeless traveler in the rain.
When life goes by and no one bothers, Heaven feels the pain.
Looking down God sees each heartache, knows each sorrow, hears each cry.
And looking up, we'll see compassion's fire ablaze in Heaven's eyes.
In Heaven's eyes there are no losers; In Heaven's eyes, no hopeless cause.
Only people like you with feelings like me, amazed by the grace we can find.
In Heaven's eyes.
WOW! What powerful and amazing words!
