What Do You See, Lord?”

Verse 1]
What’s the point of being rich
When the hungry still search for bread?
What’s the point of sleeping soft
When another man has no bed?
We wear gold while the children cry,
Build towers just to reach the sky—
But down below,
The poor still die.

You said the meek would rule the land,
But all I see is greedy hands.
You said love’s the greatest plan,
So tell me, God, do we still stand?


---

[Chorus]
What do You see, Lord, when You look at us?
Are You proud, or are You crushed?
Do You still smile when we pray and fight,
And call it faith in the same night?
Are You still watching, or did we drift too far—
Beyond the mercy of who You are?
Oh Lord… what do You see?


---

[Verse 2]
Some spend millions just for fame,
While others die without a name.
Some cry for food, some waste champagne—
How can both live in the same domain?
You gave us life, but we trade it cheap,
We break the hearts we swore to keep.
We build our walls and lose our homes,
And wonder why we feel alone.


---

[Pre-Chorus]
Is this the world You died to save,
Or just the one we made ourselves?
If pain’s the price of free will’s gift,
Then teach us how to heal, not drift.


---

[Chorus]
What do You see, Lord, when You look at us?
Are we shadows of Your trust?
Do You still send the sun to shine,
On hearts that don’t align with Thine?
Are You still near when we forget to pray,
Or do You turn and walk away?
Oh Lord… what do You see?


---

[Bridge – trembling & slow]
Do You cry when the bombs go off?
Do You ache when the children cough?
Do You whisper when a soldier falls?
Do You care when no one calls?
You said love would set us free,
But love’s now a luxury.
So tell me, Lord, if You were me—
Would You still believe?


---

[Final Chorus – rising]
What do You see, Lord, when You look this way?
Do You still love us anyway?
We broke Your word, but still we pray—
For mercy we can’t repay.
And if You’re crying up above,
Please teach us, Lord, the way of love.
Don’t give up on humanity—
Oh Lord…
What do You see?


---

[Outro – spoken softly]
If You still breathe through our pain,
Then maybe loss is how we gain.
And if this world’s a test, not doom—
Then let Your light fill every room.

Because even if we fail to see,
You still believe…
In what we could be.
