Could You Believe

He was a friend to sinners He was a gentle man Beautiful, humble master plan His voice could pierce the darkness Quiet an angry sea I hear Him saying follow me I look in your eyes and I tell you these things But somehow I know that it's hard to believe Could you believe if I really was like Him If I lived all the words that I said If for a change I would kneel down before you And serve you instead Could you believe He was the Lamb of mercy Undying hope of men Waiting for love to come again He is the light of heaven Radiant Prince of peace I Hear him saying, "Follow Me" I look in your eyes and I tell you these things But somehow I know that it's hard to believe Could you believe if I carried my own cross If I saw that the children were fed If for a moment I held my opinion And quietly led Could you believe I am meant to be a pure reflection of the truth So above it all I pray that I will not obscure the view Could you believe if I stood here transparent And through me you could see his eyes Could you believe if you saw right inside me And there was no disguise Could you believe if I was really like him If I lived all the words that I said If it was clear that I held in my heart What I know in my head Could you believe, could you believe Looking at me, could you believe Could you believe?
