Through Heavens Eyes chords by Stephen Schwartz

E
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?

A
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

E D E D E F D# F
Lai-la-lai...

F
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?

Bb
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

G#
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

D G F  G F E D E
Lai-la-lai...

So how do you judge what a man is worth
By what he builds or buys?
                            G#m     F#m
You can never see with your eyes on earth
C#m                   E
Look through heaven's eyes
G#m
Look at your life
A
Look at your life
                          D        E    D E
Look at your life through heaven's eyes
