A single thread in a tapestry  
                           D 
Through its color brightly shine  

Can never see its purpose  
                            E      Bm E 
In the pattern of the grand design  

And the stone that sits on the very top  
                         D 
Of the mountain's mighty face  
                        Bm 
Does it think it's more important  
                              E 
Than the stones that form the base?

So how can you see what your life is worth  

Or where your value lies?  
                              C#m 
You can never see through the eyes of man  
         G#m 
You must look at your life  
             C#m                   E 
Look at your life through heaven's eyes

A lake of gold in the desert sand  
                          D# 
Is less than a cool fresh spring  

And to one lost sheep, a shepherd boy  
                            F    Cm F   
Is greater than the richest king  

If a man lose ev'rything he owns  
                      D# 
Has he truly lost his worth?  
             Cm 
Or is it the beginning  
                      F      Cm F  
Of a new and brighter birth?

So how do you measure the worth of a man  
                                      
In wealth or strength or size?  
                                     Dm 
In how much he gained or how much he gave?  
                C     Am 
The answer will come  
                 Bb             Dm 
The answer will come to him who tries  
                            Am       D 
To look at his life through heaven's eyes  

Bb 
And that's why we share all we have with you  

Though there's little to be found  
C                      Dm 
When all you've got is nothing  
          Bb        C 
There's a lot to go around

No life can escape being blown about  
                           Cm 
By the winds of change and chance  
Bb                                F 
And though you never know all the steps  
         Bb                C     F C  
You must learn to join the dance 
                           D 
You must learn to join the dance

So how do you judge what a man is worth  
By what he builds or buys?

You can never see with your eyes on earth  
C#m                   E 
Look through heaven's eyes
