Some might say this world today shows
God's left us to our mistakes oh
He has never been so far away
How could any father stand
To see his children across so many lands
Suffer so and give no helping hand
Far away and out of sight
There's a child that's too weak to cry
Can't you see him in disguise?
Reaching out to the heart that's in you and I
He's the hand that wipes that brow
He's the tear that trickles down
Upon the face that cries without a sound
What a simple choice to make
Between what you give and what you take
Such precious life precious life would save
There's a part of you asks why
Would he leave so many so far behind
Can't you see him in disguise
Reaching out to the heart that's in you and I
Look again don't hide your eyes
Reaching out to you and I
He is there in every tear
Not far away he's right here
Oh how could he be more near
