Full Song Lyrics

Verse 1:

Verse 1:

We stumble and fall as we all try to make our own way

Victims of anger and pride that we live with each day

Most of us mean well but the path home is so hard to find

Until we give up the search on our own and just follow his light

 Chorus:

Is that what Jesus had in mind when he looked down from the cross

Through the pain of his wounds he could still feel the pain in all of us

The sins of man he took in his soul to cleans and make us whole

Is that what Jesus had in mind so long ago

  Verse 2:

Sometimes I wonder how I managed to struggle so long

I've heard all the words in the book and sang all his songs

Still in my foolish pride somehow I thought only of me

Until I took the hand of the man that calmed the seas

 Chorus:

Is that what Jesus had in mind when he looked down from the cross

Through the pain of his wounds he could still feel the pain in all of us

The sins of man he took in his soul to cleans and make us whole

Is that what Jesus had in mind so long ago

 Bridge:

We can all ease his burden by living our lives in his light

We can all ease his burden by being all we can be

 Chorus:

Is that what Jesus had in mind when he looked down from the cross

Through the pain of his wounds he could still feel the pain in all of us

The sins of man he took in his soul to cleans and make us whole

Is that what Jesus had in mind so long ago

Is that what Jesus had in mind so long ago
