If only I had eyes that
Could see as Christ sees
to then love my fellow man
even my enemies
If only my poor heart felt
The forgiveness He lent
All those with hatred who delt
Judgment and punishment
If only my ears could hear
The hurt that He hears
When enemies near
Their troubles behind the sneers
If only I could sense some
Of what our Savior does
Like Him I want to become
Because of how He loves us
I can train my eyes
More upon His Word
Discern truth from lies
Through His message heard
I can much better sense
What He would have me do
Through prayer, that's consistent
For He fills me with His love, too
I can much better love
Even my enemies
When I want to shout, "Enough!"
I can use words of peace
how inspiring:
