Looking Through Your Eyes

from Playtime Selections by Adjoa Skinner

about

the forlorn ballad.

lyrics

This early morning I have come to You
To sort some things out in my head
Its amazing to see how You carefully
hold me in the palm of Your hand

You show me how my ears have been deafened
to Your still sweet gentle voice
This time I need to learn the lesson
of the weight that lies in human choice.

Teach me to live looking through Your eyes
Teach me to live looking through Your eyes

My heart aches for something
that You've told me is not mine to take
I thought my hands were open in case of this,
but these feelings I can't easily shake

But You are a good God
and Your purposes and plans divine.
I know but its true God
that at times they seem to be so unkind.

Teach me to live looking through Your eyes
Teach me to live looking through Your eyes

< musical interlude >

Teach me to live looking through Your eyes
Teach me to live looking through Your eyes
