Mere Human Beings (Changed)

Walking on broken glass,
Playing on scorpions backs,
Oasisles deserts in every direction.
Relationships of trust with mere human beings.
How can we live, without the pain?
Why do we do it, if it all is in vain?
We know the hope for this world,
And the end is in sight!
We stay here to give escape,
And assurance of rest from the plight!

Look at me through inhuman eyes,
See that I too am a human.
But look beyond and try and you’ll find,
That in Christ, even hypocrites, we’re forgiven.
Look at Him with human eyes,
If the light of his face does not blind you.
But look beyond and try and you’ll find,
That with Christ you too can live…

Walking on broken glass,
Playing on scorpions backs,
Oasisles deserts in every direction.
Relationships of trust with mere human beings.
You too can live with the pain.
You too can see that not all is in vain.
We know the hope for this world,
And the end is in sight!
There is a real escape,
An escape from the plight.

Look at me…
Look at Him.
