Brother (Open Up Our Eyes)
When I look into the face of my enemy,
I see my brother,
I see my brother.
When I look into the face of my enemy,
I see my brother,
I see my brother.
When I look into the face of my enemy,
I see my brother,
I see my brother.
1)
Forgiveness is the garment of our courage,
The power to make the peace we long to know.
Open up our eyes
To see the wounds that bind
All of humankind.
May our shuttered hearts
Greet the dawn of life with charity and love.
When I look into the face of my enemy,
I see my brother,
I see my brother.
2)
Look, who's my enemy really?
Is it even you?
Or is it the sin in us that got our defenses up?
This fight to be right, oh man, it's killin' us.
But when we dig in His word
It throws that mirror up.
This back and forth it leads us to divide,
That division leads to pain
The pain leads to our demise
We must decide, is this workin'?
All this fussin' ain't worth it.
Animosity it don't serve us,
Let's get it all on the surface, ya'll.
I've never even walked a day in your shoes,
You've never been on my floor,
You ain't seen it from my view.
I must admit man,
We've got a lot more to uncover.
So I'm lettin' go of self,
And I'm holdin' on to brothers
Come on.
When I look into the face of my enemy,
I see my brother,
I see my brother.
When I look into the face of my enemy,
I see my brother,
I see my brother.
When I look into the face of my enemy,
I see my brother,
I see my brother
When I look into the face of my enemy,
I see my brother,
I see my brother.
I see my brother,
I see my brother.
When I look into the face of my enemy,
I see my brother,
I see my brother.
When I look into the face of my enemy,
I see my brother,
I see my brother.

Open up our eyes
To see the wounds that bind

I see my brother,
I see my brother
When I look into the face of my enemy,
I see my brother,
I see my brother.
