Michael Card - Forgiving eyes

Sur^Emrounded with shouts the cruel accus^Dations Dr^CM7agged to the court no hope of sal^Dvation ^EmAll hope was lost for those who had ca^Dught me ^CM7Knew what I was, They knew all a^Dbout me

I th^Emought it seemed strange as we entered in They s^CM7topped a young rabbi to ask His opinion ^EmCaught in the act, their reason for hating My b^CM7ody could feel the stones that were waiting

My j^Amudge a man from Galilee In His e^Fyes so gentle I could see A f^Dmather and a brother and a s^Bon

J^Eust as I saw Him, the hope I had lost became b^Aorn again I w^Bas not hopeless Th^Eough I'd been lost Now, I ^G#mfelt I was found when He lo^Aoked at me With ^BHis forgiving e^Emyes

The^Em crowd gathered round, so angry and v^Diolent But ^CM7He stood beside me, peaceful and ^Dsilent T^Emhen with a word, with one question, He sh^Dowed them That t^CM7hey too were guilty and could not cond^Demn

The ne^Emxt thing I knew, He asked me, "Where ^Dare they?" And ^CM7I looked around the courtyard was e^Dmpty The s^Emtones scattered 'round, the warm morning s^Dunlight H^CM7e'd made the darkness perfectly li^Dght

In this ^Amnew light now I understood He would ^Fnot condemn me though He could For ^DmHe would be condemned someday for ^Bme

J^Eust as I saw Him, the hope I had lost became b^Aorn again I w^Bas not hopeless Th^Eough I'd been lost Now, I ^G#mfelt I was found when He lo^Aoked at me With ^BHis forgiving e^Eye^G#ms ^{A B E G#m A B}
