The Eyes Of God

all knowing He is wise

there’s nothing we disguise

as those eyes search with love
He’s looking to meet every need
with more grace from above

a heart will yield when one knows God
it’s soft and tender too
allowing God to be the Lord
governing all you do

as those perfect eyes fix on man

for the future holds what God plans
if only one stays near

He’s there to offer of Himself
to help you many ways
____
for if you turned your eyes away
how sad you’ve made Him grieve
if only you will look to Him
He’ll help you to believe
