|
A single thread in a tapestry
|
Through its color brightly shine
|
Can never see its purpose
|
In the pattern of the grand design
|
|
And the stone that sits on the very top
|
Of the mountain's mighty face
|
Does it think it's more important
|
Than the stones that form the base?
|
|
So how can you see what your life is worth
|
Or where your value lies?
|
You can never see through the eyes of man
|
You must look at your life
|
|
Look at your life through heaven's eyes
|
Lai-la-lai...
|
|
A lake of gold in the desert sand
|
Is less than a cool fresh spring
|
And to one lost sheep, a shepherd boy
|
Is greater than the richest king
|
If a man lose ev'rything he owns
|
Has he truly lost his worth?
|
Or is it the beginning
|
Of a new and brighter birth?
|
|
So how do you measure the worth of a man
|
In wealth or strength or size?
|
In how much he gained or how much he gave?
|
The answer will come
|
The answer will come to him who tries
|
To look at his life through heaven's eyes
|
|
And that's why we share all we have with you
|
Though there's little to be found
|
When all you've got is nothing
|
There's a lot to go around
|
|
No life can escape being blown about
|
By the winds of change and chance
|
And though you never know all the steps
|
You must learn to join the dance
|
You must learn to join the dance
|
Lai-la-lai...
|
|
So how do you judge what a man is worth
|
By what he builds or buys?
|
You can never see with your eyes on earth
|
Look through heaven's eyes
|
Look at your life
|
Look at your life
|
Look at your life through heaven's eyes
|
