Faith My Eyes Lyrics - Caedmons Call

As I survey the ground for ants 

Looking for a place to sit and read 

And I'm reminded of the streets of my hometown 

How they're much like this concrete that's warm beneath my feet 

And how I'm all wrapped up in my mother's face 

With a touch of my father just up around the eyes 

And the sound of my brother's laugh 

More wrapped up in what binds our ever distant lives 

But if I must go 

Things I trust will be better off without me 

But I don't want to know 

'Cause life is better off a mystery 

So keep 'em coming, these lines on the road 

And keep me responsible, be it a light or heavy load 

Keep me guessing with these blessings in disguise 

And I'll walk with grace my feet and faith my eyes 

Hometown weather is on TV 

And I imagine the lives of the people living there 

And I'm curious if they imagine me 

'Cause they just wanna leave, I wish that I could stay 

And I get turned around 

And I mistake my happiness for blessing 

And I'm blessed as the poor 

Still I judge success by how I'm dressing 

So keep 'em coming, these lines on the road 

And keep me responsible, be it a light or heavy load 

Keep me guessing with these blessings in disguise 

And I'll walk with grace my feet and faith my eyes 

So I'll sing a song of my hometown 

Breathe the air and walk the streets 

And maybe find a place to sit and read 

But the ants are welcome company 

So keep 'em coming, these lines on the road 

And keep me responsible, be it a light or heavy load 

To keep me guessing with these blessings in disguise 

And I'll walk with grace my feet and faith my eyes 

And I'll walk with grace my feet and faith my eyes 

And I'll walk with grace my feet and faith my eyes
