  • Lyrics

    I may not be every mother's dream for her little girl,
    And my face may not grace the mind of everyone in the world.
    But that's all right, as long as I can have one wish I pray:
    When people look inside my life, I want to hear them say,

    She's got her Father's eyes,
    Her Father's eyes;
    Eyes that find the good in things,
    When good is not around;
    Eyes that find the source of help,
    When help just can't be found;
    Eyes full of compassion,
    Seeing every pain;
    Knowing what you're going through
    And feeling it the same.
    Just like my Father's eyes,
    My Father's eyes,
    My Father's eyes,
    Just like my Father's eyes.

    And on that day when we will pay for all the deeds we have done,
    Good and bad they'll all be had to see by everyone.
    And when you're called to stand and tell just what you saw in me,
    More than anything I know, I want your words to be,

    She had her Father's eyes,
    Her Father's eyes;
    Eyes that found the good in things,
    When good was not around;
    Eyes that found the source of help,
    When help would not be found;
    Eyes full of compassion,
    Seeing every pain;
    Knowing what you're going through,
    And feeling it the same.
    Just like my Father's eyes,
    My Father's eyes,
    My Father's eyes,
    Just like my Father's eyes.
    My Father's eyes,
    My Father's eyes,
    Just like my Father's eyes.

  • Compation and comfort from God

    It's not easy to be a leader specially when you are a kid or a growing up. But since you know that you do your best to please the evenly father you just don't mind of what people has to say about you to make you feel bad. So, when it happens, you just sing ''My father's eyes'' by Amy Grant to feel good inside. This is how I feel the words of this song.
