The way you look at me

You rooted out my sin and mess

Replaced it with your peace

Now I’ve become your righteousness

A son, a king, a priest

I rest my head upon your chest

The place I love to lean

You tell me I am sanctified

That I’m completely clean

How you see me is amazing

Too incredible, too crazy

To believe

So as my soul recovers

Teach me to look at others

The way you look at me

You severed me from all the past

On the cross at Calvary

Your resurrection raised me up

To reign here on your seat

You wrap me in royal robe

I have no words to speak

And on my head a crown of gold

Your tears flow down my cheek

How you see me is amazing

Too incredible, too crazy

To believe

So as my soul recovers

Teach me to look at others

The way you look at me

You tell me to sit down with you

So you can wash my feet

Because to you I’m beautiful

Restored, made new, complete

You tell me I am favoured like

A prince, a king, a queen

You tell me you were by my side

Everywhere I’ve been

How you see me is amazing

Too incredible, too crazy

To believe

So as my soul recovers

Teach me to look at others

The way you look at me

A table in the wilderness

Your grace has laid complete

In order that forever more

Together we will feast

You tell me I am beautiful

A picture so serene

A rainbow of more colours

Than eyes have ever seen

You say I’m like a drama

The most romantic scene

A glorious panorama

Of reds and blues and greens

My heart within now shudders

As you whisper words of rest

But words of love you utter

I’m broken, I’m a mess

You say that I’m more beautiful

Than any living soul

Has ever been

How you see me is amazing

Too incredible, too crazy

To believe

So as my soul recovers

Teach me to look at others

The way you look at me

While my soul recovers

Please help me look at others

The way you look at me
