I saw a man today, his whole world across his back
A living monument opposed to my success
I tried to look into his eyes, as he shuffled past my car
Sweat beading on his skin, his clothes and hair a mess
As the light turned green and I pulled away, he slowly disappeared
Just a memory of another chance I failed to show your love here

I want to love because You loved
I want to give because You gave
I want to reach my hand out to the lost
Because I know Your hand will save
Only You can save

I have to wonder, if I really want to know
The struggle and the pain that others feel
Do I want to hear the stories I see echoed in their eyes
Or is this love I say that I’m reflecting even real?
As the light turns on inside my head, and I slowly disappear
I steel myself because what You call for me is to show Your love here

I want to love just like You loved
I want to give just like You gave
I want to reach out with Your hands
Because only You can save
Only You can save

So let me be Your hands
So let me be Your eyes
Help me understand
That I’m Your hands and feet hidden behind this frail human disguise

Chorus
I want to love just like You loved
I want to give just like You gave
I want to reach out with Your hands
Because only You can save
Only You can save
