His Eyes lyrics

Song information

Artist: Steven Curtis Chapman
Album: Real Life Conversations

Lyrics

Sometimes his eyes were gentle
And filled with laughter
And sometimes they cried;
Sometimes there was a fire
Of holy anger
In jesus' eyes
But the eyes that saw hope in the hopeless
That saw through the fault to the need
Are the same eyes that look down from heaven
Into the deepest part of you and me

Chorus
His eyes are always upon us;
His eyes never close in sleep
And no matter where you go
You will always be in his eyes, in his eyes

Sometimes his voice comes calling
Like rolling thunder
Or like driving rain;
And sometimes his voice is quiet
And we start to wonder
If he knows our pain
But he who spoke peace to the water
Cares more for our hearts than the waves
And the voice that once said "you're forgiven"
Still says "you're forgiven" today

Sometimes I look above me when stars are shining
And I feel so small;
How could the god of heaven and all creation
Know i'm here at all
But then in silence he whispers
"My child, I created you too
And you're my most precious creation;
I even gave my son for you."

(Chorus)

Sometimes his eyes were gentle, and filled with laughter
