Lyrics
Some might say this world today shows God's left us to our mistakes Oh, and He's never been so far away Some might say How can any father stand See his children across many lands Suffer so and give no helping hand No helping hand Somewhere tonight Far away and out of sight There's a child that's too weak to cry Deep in those eyes Can't you see him in disguise Reaching out to the heart that's in you And I In every tear That is wet He is there In every tear That is wet He is there He's the hand that wipes that brow He's the tear that trickles down Upon the face that cries Without a sound We need you now What a simple choice to make If we want to give and want to take When will you give Such precious life you save Life you save Somewhere inside There's a part of you that asks why Would He leave so many so far Deep in those eyes Can't you see him in disguise Reaching out to the heart that's in you And I In every tear That is wet He is there In every tear That is wet He is there He is there He is there Looking at you Reaching out to you Looking at you Reaching out to you Looking at you Reaching out to you Looking at you Reaching out to you Looking at you And I In disguise
