Biography:
Derek Walsh Webb (born May 27, 1974 in Memphis, Tennessee) is a singer-songwriter, and a part-time member of the band Caedmon's Call. In 2003, Derek left Caedmon's Call to pursue a solo career with the exception of occasionally still touring and singing with them. His first solo album, She Must and Shall Go Free is notable for causing controversy in Contemporary Christian Music circles; some Christian retailers refused to stock the album for its use of "strong" language.

Faith my eyes Words and music by Derek Webb
Capo 1st fret
Intro G Gmaj7 C2
Em7 Em9 Am7 G/B C2
C2 G/B Am7 C/G D2/F#
As I survey the ground for ants
C2 G/B D7sus4 G C/G
Looking for a place to sit and read
C2 G/B Am7 C/G D2/F#
I'm reminded of the streets of my hometown
C2 G/B D7sus4 G C/G
How they're much like this concrete that's warm beneath my feet
And how I'm all wrapped up in my mother's face
With a touch of my father just up around the eyes
And the sound of my brother's laugh
But more wrapped up in what binds our ever distant lives
G Gmaj7 C2
But if I must go
Em7 Em9 Am7 G/B C2
Things I trust will be better off without me
G Gmaj7 C2
But I don't want to know
Em7 Em9 Am7 G/B C2
Life is better off a mystery
C2 D7sus4 G C/G G
So keep 'em coming these lines on the road
C2 D7sus4 Em G
And keep me responsible be it a light or heavy load
C2 D7sus4 G C/G G
And keep me guessing with these blessings in disguise
C2 D7sus4 G C/G
And I'll walk with grace my feet and faith my eyes
Hometown weather is on TV
And I imagine the lives of the people living there
And I'm curious if they imagine me
Cause they just wanna leave; I wish that I could stay
But I get turned around
And I mistake my happiness for blessing
But I'm blessed as the poor
Still I judge success by how I'm dressing
C2 D7sus4 G C/G G
So keep 'em coming these lines on the road
C2 D7sus4 Em G
And keep me responsible be it a light or heavy load
C2 D7sus4 G C/G G
And keep me guessing with these blessings in disguise
C2 D7sus4 F2 C2 G C/G G
And I'll walk with grace my feet and faith my eyes
F2 C2 D
La-la-la’s
So I'll sing a song of my hometown
I'll breathe the air and walk the streets
Maybe find a place to sit and read
And the ants are welcome company
Repeat chorus
C2 D7sus4 G C/G G
I'll walk with grace my feet and faith my eyes.
C2 D7sus4 F2 C2 G C/G G
And I'll walk with grace my feet and faith my eyes...
