Through God’s Eyes

[Verse 1]
Old Jim he lived on the edge of town
He walked the streets morning to sundown
We all knew his name
But we called him crazy
He'd pick up cans just to get by
Doin’ what he could to survive
Had an old dog that never left his side
He called Daisy
The whole town warned me to stay away from him
I used to wonder who was better
Those people or Jim

[Chorus]
'Cause if the world is round
And we all breathe air
We all laugh and we all get scared
We all have our shared good and bad times
Yeah we've all got a heart
And we’ve all got a soul
And on the day that we're born
We all start to grow old
Think about it
It really comes as no surprise
We all look the same through God's eyes

[Verse 2]
Bill he's sittin' on cellblock 5
Killed a man for messin' with his wife
Probably gonna spend the rest of his life in prison
When he put that ring on Delila's hand
He never thought she'd find another man
He never dreamed that he’d have to make that decision
When he fired those shots
Did he buy himself a ticket to Hell
I don’t think Heaven's any further away
From a church than a jail cell

[Chorus]
’Cause if the world is round
And we all breathe air
We all laugh and we all get scared
We all have our shared good and bad times
Yeah we've all got a heart
We've all got a soul
And on the day that we're born
We all start to grow old
Think about it
It really comes as no surprise
We all look the same through God’s eyes

[Verse 3]
A wino livin' in an old Dodge van
A preacher with a bible in his hand
A long haired guitar picker in a hillbilly van
As far as he's concerned
There ain't much difference you see
Between Jim, the preacher, the wino and Bill and me

[Chorus]
'Cause if the world is round
And we all breathe air
We all laugh and we all get scared
We all have our shared good and bad times
Yeah we've all got a heart
We've all got a soul
And on the day that we're born
We all start to grow old
Think about it
It really comes as no surprise
We all look the same through God's eyes
Yeah through God's eyes
