Let Them See

Let them see, not perfection
But saved by Amazing Grace
Let them see, not worth
Yet Jesus pleads our case

Let them see, not pride
But humility in its place
Let them see, not lies
But truth they shall embrace

Let them see, love
Without gossip, without spite
Let them see, wrongs
Striving to make them right

Let them see, what is holy
Wicked imaginations put away
Let them see with clarity
Never to be led astray

Let them see, souls
The mission of the church
Let them see, our words
Never meant to hurt

Let them see, time 
Standing still for no man
Let them see, life
Cradled in God's hands

Let them see, Jesus
Our foundation, we must stand
Let them see, the world
As heaps of sinking sand

Let them see, life a vapor
A tomorrow never promised
Let them see, eternity
A light or total darkness

Let them see, choices
God has given us to choose
Let them see, a soul
God never wants to lose

Let them see, this world
A cold and lonely place
Let them see, it's purpose
Destruction is it's face

Let them see, hope
In the words of a living God
Let them see, salvation
Revival from abroad

Let them see, sin
Bondage as it's due
Let them see, without Jesus
They will never make it through

Let them see, Our Savior
Standing at the door
Let them see, our hope
An eternity with Jesus, forevermore
