I've been to a lot of places, I have seen a lot of things
Mine eyes have viewed the beauty of so many wondrous things
From the flowers in the springtime in a valley deep and wide
From the majesty of mountains by the oceans swelling tide
But these things soon fade away, they seem to grow so small
When I compare them to the greatest miracle of all
For the greatest thing my eyes have seen is the changing of a life
When a sinner falls down on his knees and brings his heart to Christ
Nothing moves my soul to tears like the joy redemption brings
And to witness true salvation is the greatest thing my eyes have ever seen
Verse
I have seen the dying hopeless soul find joy and peace and love
I've seen them pass from death to life by the power of Jesus' blood
From the wealthy born in riches to the poorest homeless man
From the oldest folks to the youngest child who've received salvation's plan
There are many things I'd like to see before this journey ends
But they can't compare to what I see when a soul is born again
For the greatest thing my eyes have seen is the changing of a life
When a sinner falls down on his knees and brings his heart to Christ
Nothing moves my soul to tears like the joy redemption brings
And to witness true salvation is the greatest thing my eyes have ever seen
