Tears in God's Eyes - Kenny Rogers

One man can’t sleep in his penthouse bed

Wall Street worries fill his head

While another man dreams in his cardboard shed on Broadway

Early morning traffic jam, wakeup call for both of them

Will work to eat, ask easy street for small change

And which one needs it more?

The rich man or the poor?

A change of heart and attitude

Unselfishness meets gratitude

It’s enough to put tears in God’s eyes

Enough to make angels cry

When the power of love lifts someone above

The emptiness of their unbearable life

It’s enough to put tears in God’s eyes

Late at night, a baby cries

His mother gives him life then dies

With no one even by them to be sad

But another woman fills the need

It’s her heart and his mouth she’ll feed

When she gives her love to the child she’d never had

Oh, and which one needs it more?

It’s hard to say for sure

When something grows where nothing was

As strong as any bond of blood

It’s enough to put tears in God’s eyes

Enough to make angels cry

When the power of love lifts someone above

The emptiness of their unbearable life

It’s enough to put tears in God’s eyes

Every minute, every day

A little miracle’s done

Someone opens up their heart

And lets it shine like the sun

Just the light of that one

It’s enough to put tears in God’s eyes

Enough to make angels cry

When the power of love lifts someone above

The emptiness of their unbearable life

When the power of love lifts one of us above

The emptiness of our unbearable life

It’s enough to put tears in God’s eyes

It’s enough to put tears in God’s eyes

In God’s eyes
