Eyes Up

I know you lost a brother
I know he's your best friend
I know that he was broken down
But that's not how this ends

Did you know he's more then flesh and bones
Did you know that he was blessed
Did you know that God can wipe your tears
And take this off your chest

Relax, no stress
Maybe we're light years from our home
But this is just a single step

Relax, no stress
The God who gave us life is still here
He is not One to forget

I know it's easy now to say
And so much harder to believe
I give you all the truth I know
Because in truth it comforts me

One day we'll rise up with our eyes up
And they'll be eyes that truly see
We owe nothing to the ferryman
Eternal life is free
