"Too many hypocrites", I heard her say
"I even saw it in the headlines today
How can I follow God
When His own people turn away?
Nobody's perfect, but I just want to see
Somebody living what they say they believe
If they've got all this world needs, like they say
I wonder, why won't they give some away?"

Can she see God
For who He really is
In what she sees in you and me?
Hey, can she see God
For who He really is?
For who He really is
Is all she really needs to see

He slips into church, and he puts up his guard
They look so happy, but his life's been so hard
He keeps his distance so they won't see the scars
It's just religion that's all dressed up in white
And God is love as long as you're living right
But does he know that Jesus also has scars?
And His love can reach him, no matter how far

Can he see God
For who He really is
In what he sees in you and me?
Yeah, can he see God
For who He really is?
For who He really is
Is all he really needs to see
Is all he really needs to see
The skeptics are watching
To see who will fall
While those disillusioned
Search for the Truth in it all
Maybe today
We'll cross their paths unaware
And they'll stop and look at us
What will be there?

Will they see God
For who He really is
In what they see in you and me?
Yeah, yeah
Will they see God
For who He really is?
For who He really is
Is all they really need to see

Can they see God
For who He really is
They really need to see
Who He really is
