If you had eyes to see!

If you had eyes to see
The scars that cover me
You would have eyes to see
The Christ who set me free
If you had eyes to see
My bruised and battered heart
Then you could also see
He was with me from the start
If you could see the scars
That cover my Gods heart
Then with those very eyes
You’d see Gods shining star
Far above the heavens
And in the darkest night
He came and died for you and me
He came to give us sight
Now look upon the one
Who was battered and was bruised
He is Gods only Son
And for you He was abused
He came to set the prisoners free
He came to give us eyes that see
The glory of our God on high
Whose glory fills the earth and sky
He came to heal the crushed and broken
With acts of love and the word spoken
He died for us and on a tree
And now indeed we all can see
Will you open up your eyes and live
With an open heart that can forgive
For we, forgiven, now set free
Can open up our eyes and see!

Beautiful Brother Frank! I am learning how important forgiving is and not holding any grudge lest the enemy gets a foothold. However, it is only from the source of forgiveness and love – Jesus- that this is even possible!
