"Too many hypocrites", I heard her say

I even saw it in the headlines today

"How can I follow god

When his own people turn away?

Nobody's perfect, but I'd just like to see

Somebody living what they say they believe

They've got all this world needs, like they say

I wonder, why won't they give some away?"

[Chorus]

Can she see god

For who he really is

In what she sees in you and me?

Can she see god

For who he really is?

For who he really is

Is all she really needs to see

He steps in to church, and puts up his guard

He seems so happy, but his life's been so hard

He keeps his distance

So they won't see he has scars

It's just religion, it's all dressed up in white

And "god is love, as long as you're living right"

But does he know that jesus also has scars?

And his love can reach him, no matter how far

Can he see god

For who he really is

In what he sees in you and me?

Can he see god

For who he really is?

For who he really is

Is all he really need to see

The skeptics are watching

To see who will fall

So maybe they could see the truth in it all

Maybe someday, we'll cross their path unaware

And they'll stop and look at us

What will be there?

Will they see god

For who he really is

In what they see in you and me?

Will they see god

For who he really is?

For who he really is

Is all they really need to see
