His Eyes

 

His eyes never slumber- His eyes never sleep

His eye is on sparrows and so He sees me

His eyes know the numbers among us who weep

His eye never winks at the sin that He sees

 

And in His eyes I am excellent

He shall guide me with His eye

‘In the way that I should live

In the way that I should die.

 

And His eye is ever open

His eyes are afire with a blazing light

He sees all the hidden places

There is no place to hide from His sight

 

His eyes are on those who fear Him

He sets His eyes on me for good

He has called me the apple of His eye

His eye sees where I never could.

 

His eyes search the earth for the righteous

His eye is pure- on sin He’ll not gaze

His eye is ever set  on the truth

But not on the unrighteous He  looks away.

 

And His eye is ever open

His eyes are afire with a blazing light

He sees all the hidden places

There is no place to hide from His sight
