A single thread in a tapestry And though its color brightly shines Can never see its purpose In the pattern of the grand design And the stone that sits up on the very top Of the mountain's mighty face Does it think that it's more important Than the stones that forms the base So how can you see what your life is worth Or where your value lies? Oh, you can never see through the eyes of man You must look at your life Look at your life through heaven's eyes Lai lai lai lee lai lai Lai lai lai lee Lai lai lai lee lai lai Through heaven's eyes Lai lai lai lee lai lai Lai lai lai lee Lai lai lai lee lai lai Through heaven's eyes A lake of gold in the desert sand Is less than a cool fresh spring And to one lost sheep, a shepherd boy Is greater than the richest king Should a man lose everything he owns Has he truly lost his worth Or is it the beginning Of a new and brighter birth? So how do you measure the worth of a man In wealth or strength or size, oh? In how much he gained or how much he gave The answer will come to ya To look at his life through heaven's eyes Lai lai lai lee lai lai Lai lai lai lee Lai lai lai lee lai lai Through heaven's eyes Lai lai lai lee lai lai Lai lai lai lee Lai lai lai lee lai lai Through heaven's eyes That's why we share all we have with you Though there's little to be found When all you've got is nothing There's a lot to go around No life can escape being blown about By the winds of change and chance And though you never know all the steps You must learn to join the dance Lai lai lai lee lai lai Lai lai lai lee Lai lai lai lee lai lai Through heaven's eyes Lai lai lai lee lai lai Lai lai lai lee Lai lai lai lee lai lai Through heaven's eyes Lai lai lai lee lai lai Lai lai lai lee Lai lai lai lee lai lai Through heaven's eyes Lai lai lai lee lai lai Lai lai lai lee Lai lai lai lee lai lai Through heaven's eyes Lai lai lai lee lai lai Lai lai lai lee
