Mama’s Eyes by my bed each night When I’d cry she’d hold me tight And when the fever would come, she’d cool my brow I remember now, Mama’s eyes When I went my way How those eyes just seemed to say “May the Lord be your strength and song" Words gentle, but strong Written there in Mama’s eyes In those eyes my fears were all cast down In those eyes was strength without a sound Etched into my mind for comfort Hope through every trial Eyes that seemed to know my every turn Shining with compassion and concern Shedding light on every shadow I could find such rest in Mama’s eyes Jesus' eyes, gazing deeper still To the place only He could feel Needs only He could meet Finally laid at His feet There is rest in Jesus’ eyes He has loved me more Than the greatest of loves before Love purer than winter’s snow There is comfort to know From a look in Jesus’ eyes In those eyes my fears were all cast down In those eyes was strength without a sound Etched into my mind for comfort Hope through every trial Eyes that seemed to know my every turn Shining with compassion and concern Shedding light on every shadow I can find such rest in Jesus’ eyes One day I will see How such love could be given to me The foolish will be made wise From the truth written there in Jesus’ eyes In Jesus’ eyes
Perhaps his best...a tear jerker for sure
Mama’s Eyes by my bed each night
When I’d cry she’d hold me tight
And when the fever would come, she’d cool my brow
I remember now, Mama’s eyes
When I went my way
How those eyes just seemed to say
“May the Lord be your strength and song"
Words gentle, but strong
Written there in Mama’s eyes
In those eyes my fears were all cast down
In those eyes was strength without a sound
Etched into my mind for comfort
Hope through every trial
Eyes that seemed to know my every turn
Shining with compassion and concern
Shedding light on every shadow
I could find such rest in Mama’s eyes
Jesus' eyes, gazing deeper still
To the place only He could feel
Needs only He could meet
Finally laid at His feet
There is rest in Jesus’ eyes
He has loved me more
Than the greatest of loves before
Love purer than winter’s snow
There is comfort to know
From a look in Jesus’ eyes
In those eyes my fears were all cast down
In those eyes was strength without a sound
Etched into my mind for comfort
Hope through every trial
Eyes that seemed to know my every turn
Shining with compassion and concern
Shedding light on every shadow
I can find such rest in Jesus’ eyes
One day I will see
How such love could be given to me
The foolish will be made wise
From the truth written there in Jesus’ eyes
In Jesus’ eyes
