I Hope You See Jesus

Instead of fear, instead of blinded eyes

Instead of shame, instead of all my lies

Instead of an orphan without a name

I hope you see Jesus

Instead of anger, instead of unbelief

Instead of weakness in the heart of me

Instead of a wounded soul that sometimes loses faith

I hope you see Jesus

I hope you see Jesus

I hope you see Jesus

Standing in my place

Bearing all my shame

I hope you see Jesus

Instead of voices in a faceless crowd

Instead of prophets crying out from behind a shroud

Instead of fingers pointing out the blame

I hope you see Jesus

I hope you see love, I hope you see love, I hope you see love

Oh my God, when you look on us

A broken people who have turned from love

Instead of the words we throw and the wars we wage

I hope you forgive us

I hope you see Jesus

I hope you see Jesus

I hope you see Jesus

Standing in our place

Bearing all our shame

I hope you see Jesus
