I fell awake this morning
|
And thought I saw the sun
|
On it's way down
|
And this evening when the sky got bright
|
I realized that I'd been turned around
|
|
So, Lord I've come, again
|
To ask you what it is
|
And where in His eyes
|
And if my hands weren't worthy, Lord
|
I never could touch your shining face, again
|
|
I touched it as a child
|
I could see it for my brother
|
And I saw Him smiling gentle
|
Your shining face upon the flowers
|
|
And I recalled the times
|
When I could come to you
|
With open heart and mind
|
Knowing that the best, dear Lord
|
You'd lead me through the valley one more time
|
|
So, now I stand before you, Lord
|
To pray that you will wash again my spirit
|
And if you'll cleanse my dirty hands
|
I'd love to touch your shining face, again
|
|
For I touched it as a child
|
I could feel it for my brother
|
And I saw His smiling truth through
|
Your shining face among the clouds
|
(Face among the clouds)
|
|
Yes, we touched it as a child
|
(Yes we touched it as a child)
|
We could feel it for each other
|
(We could feel it for each other)
|
And we saw a smiling brother
|
(And we saw Him smiling brother)
|
His shining face among the clouds.
