"A Glimps Into Heaven's Eyes"

“A Glimpse Into Heaven’s Eyes”

Do you see me?  Do you see me?

Even when I try to follow you, I fall back where I used to be

I go on in the race, not seeing your face,

Blind to all reality, numb to the feeling that could make me free

Dear God, please don’t look at me. – How could you see me?

You say I am your servant.  You say I am your child.

You say I am your soldier.  You say I am your bride.

You say I am yours, for now and for all time.

You look at me and say, “You are mine.”

Who am I? … Who am I?

My heart longs to follow you.  My spirit longs to fly.

And as I seek your face, I long for your grace,

To look through the glass of reality, to see the strength to cry…

Dear God, teach me to see – tell me, who am I?

You say that I am precious.  You say that I am good.

Through all the pain and suffering – somehow you understood.

You say I am a part of you.  A part that you work through.

When I look in your eyes – I see the way you see me.
