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
