Through my Father's eyes

[vahn]

Sailing down behind the sun,
Waiting for my Prince to come.
Praying for the healing rain
To restore my soul again.

Just a toe ride on the run.
How did I get here ? what have I done ?
When will all my hopes arise ?
When I look in my Father's eyes .

Then the Light begins to shine
And I hear those ancient lullabies.
And as I watch this seedling grow,
Feel my heart start to overflow.

Where do I find the words to say?
How do I teach him ? What do we play ?
Bit by bit I've realized
That's when I need them,
That's when I need my Father's eyes .

Then the jagged edge appears
Through the distant clouds of tears.
I'm like a bridge that was washed away;
My foundations were made of clay .

As my soul slides down to die .
How could I lose him ? What didn't I try ?
Bit by bit I realized
That he was here with me ;
When I looked into my Fathers eyes .
I looked into my Father's eyes .
My Father's eyes .


In memory of my twin .

Beautiful, Vahn -- thank you for sharing.

Hebrews 12:1 (NIV)
Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles, and let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us.

Vahn, your brother and my dad are part of the great cloud of witnesses. They are with Him. They are cheering us on, rooting for us.

God bless you, Vahn.
Love,
Mack
