Through His Eyes

Through your eyes I viewed His world,
As each tiny bud unfurled.
We would stop and smell a rose,
or simply watch your garden grow,
I must admit,
I never had time before.

Through your eyes I came to see,
How much He cared for me.
I felt compassion in your soul,
Like I had never known,
I must admit, 
I never felt that before, but

Through your eyes, I could see His face,
I could feel the love, I could know His grace.
Through your eyes I could clearly see,
That the God of love really cared for me,
Through your eyes.

In your sweet and childlike way,
You trusted Him each day.
You taught me how to laugh, to pray,
And how to love you more each day,
I must admit,
I never knew how before.

Through His eyes I hope you see,
How much you mean to me.
I thought I loved you so before,
but now I love you even more.
I miss you so, but I want you to know, that

Through His eyes, I can see your face,
I can feel the love, I can know His grace.
Through His eyes I can clearly see,
That He's there with you, while He's here with me,
Through his eyes.
