Rich Mullins - Heaven In His Eyes Lyrics

See the Teacher sitting on a mountain And see Him walking along the shore His friends and disciples are gathering around Him Never spake a man like this before

But why is a man as wise as He Weeping alone in Gethsemane Could it be because He's afraid we'd never see The heaven in His eyes

See the Master walking on the water And hear Him speak and calm an angry wave Look at Him raising of Jairus's daughter And with a word Lazarus comes forth from the grave

And why is a man is strong as this Being betrayed by a good friend's kiss Could it be because this man missed The heaven in His eyes

And I'm not talking about your pie in the sky That you good boys and girls get in the by and by But rather the strength that we could find If you've got the guts to try

See the Teacher playing with the children And see Him baffle the doctors of the law Look at the people gathering to go with Him Those who see the vision that He saw

And this is why a man as holy as He Had to die alone on Calvary Cause it was the only way we could ever see The heaven in His eyes

And heaven's in His eyes...
