  • Tell me what you learned today
    tell me what you saw
    and tell me what you learned
    when you walked past that wall

    Did you feel the hearts and minds of men
    did you learn what makes the ego bend
    did you learn what real life's all about?

    Tell me what you saw
    when you walked past that wall today
    tell me what you learned
    about the hearts and minds of men

    The deep cut of the rocks
    and the long hot exhausting walk
    that you took to realize
    what's real in this world of men

    And tell me what you learned today
    tell me what you saw
    when you looked past the eyes
    of the men in the street that
    you'd never seen before

    The sharp cut of the wind
    and the cruel streak of the leaves
    and how nothing bends to comfort you
    now that you are in the world of men

    And Jesus loves the little chldren
    Jesus cares how you feel
    Jesus loves all the children
    Jesus will help you to heal someday

    And what do you see behind the eyes
    of the men you met
    and what do you see inside the souls
    of all that you wanted to heal

    Does it make you sad and cry
    and sit there cuz you want to die
    cuz there's no comfort in this world

    What did you see when
    you walked past that wall today
    and what did you see when
    you looked into the eyes of man?

    And Jesus loves the children
    Jesus loves the children
    and he will heal the wounds that never mend

    And Jesus loves the children
    and Jesus loves these children
    and he will heal the wound that never mends Lyrics licensed and provided by LyricFind
