A single thread in a tapestry 
                           D
Through its color brightly shine 

Can never see its purpose 
                            E      Bm E
In the pattern of the grand design 

And the stone that sits on the very top 
                         D
Of the mountain's mighty face 
                        Bm
Does it think it's more important 
                              E
Than the stones that form the base?

So how can you see what your life is worth 

Or where your value lies? 
                              C#m
You can never see through the eyes of man 
         G#m
You must look at your life 
             C#m                   E
Look at your life through heaven's eyes

A lake of gold in the desert sand 
                          D#
Is less than a cool fresh spring 

And to one lost sheep, a shepherd boy 
                            F    Cm F  
Is greater than the richest king 

If a man lose ev'rything he owns 
                      D#
Has he truly lost his worth? 
             Cm
Or is it the beginning 
                      F      Cm F 
Of a new and brighter birth?

So how do you measure the worth of a man 
                                     
In wealth or strength or size? 
                                     Dm
In how much he gained or how much he gave? 
                C     Am
The answer will come 
                 Bb             Dm
The answer will come to him who tries 
                            Am       D
To look at his life through heaven's eyes 

Bb
And that's why we share all we have with you 

Though there's little to be found 
C                      Dm
When all you've got is nothing 
          Bb        C
There's a lot to go around 

G#
No life can escape being blown about 
                           Cm
By the winds of change and chance 
Bb                                F
And though you never know all the steps 
         Bb                C     F C 
You must learn to join the dance
                           D
You must learn to join the dance

So how do you judge what a man is worth 
By what he builds or buys?

You can never see with your eyes on earth 
C#m                   E
