Brandon Heath - Give Me Your Eyes

Looked down from a broken sky
Traced out by the city lights
My world from a mile high
Best seat in the house tonight
Touched down on the cold black top
Hold on for the sudden stop
Breath in the familiar shock
Of confusion and chaos
All those people going somewhere,
Why have I never cared?

Chorus:
Give me your eyes for just one second
Give me your eyes so I can see
Everything that I keep missing
Give me your love for humanity
Give me your arms for the broken hearted
Ones that are far beyond my reach.
Give me your heart for the ones forgotten
Give me your eyes so I can see
Yeah
Yeah

Step out on a busy street
See a girl and our eyes meet
Does her best to smile at me
To hide what's underneath
There's a man just to her right
Black suit and a bright red tie
Too ashamed to tell his wife
He's out of work
He's buying time
All those people going somewhere
Why have I never cared?

Chorus

I've Been there a million times
A couple of million eyes
Just moving past me by
I swear I never thought that I was wrong
Well I want a second glance
So give me a second chance
To see the way you see the people all along

Chorus (x2)

Sleepover

I can't remember when was the last time i had a sleepover!
well the 4 of us (wanting, sharon, peter, myself) had an amazing time together watching the movie i am sam, checking out uni results, eating yummylicious supper(made by wanting's mum) and just fellowshipping with one another :) - too bad the 'luminous green man' didn't join us haha.
I didn't do too badly for my first semester, well but not too great either - Obtained a gpa of 3.86. Thank God for my friends who obtained good results too! I'm happy for them.

the nxt few days were spent in school for a campus crusade event where we were equipped to learn about street evangelism and using the tool called (WYS - what you see is not really what you will get) and i'm really amazed at how something simple as this can actually go a long way in sharing the gospel! We also had the opportunity to go to one of the halls (hall 2) to run errands for people and sharing the gospel with them. Through this whole experience, God has shown me many things about myself and also how to share with others effectively giving me the assurance at the same time that He will take care of the results.
