Monday's Mourning Ministry
In My Daughter's Eyes
Martina McBride
and
Your Eyes...
Newborn baby—first time I get to see,
I look down to see you are looking up at me.
The first thing I notice, as to me I see them rise,
Are your stunning, beautiful eyes…
Crystal clear green eyes—
Looking at me on another day,
Two days before your death...
And I could hear you gently say,
Mommy, you taught us our values;
Now you have to let us find our way…
You were 19; I had no right to make you stay…
But my heart agonized over decisions you might make
As I silently lifted my eyes to pray,
Father, there’s no safe place for her here!
I did agonizingly pray…
You couldn’t heed my words,
But God could hear me pray…
Now He lovingly reminds me He will keep you safe ~
For your crystal clear green eyes look into His each day…

In My Daughter's Eyes
Martina McBride
In my daughter's eyes I am a hero
I am strong and wise and I know no fear
But the truth is plain to see
She was sent to rescue me
I see who I wanna be
In my daughter's eyes
In my daughter's eyes everyone is equal
Darkness turns to light and the
world is at peace
This miracle God gave to me gives me
strength when I am weak
I find reason to believe
In my daughter's eyes
And when she wraps her hand
around my finger
Oh it puts a smile in my heart
Everything becomes a little clearer
I realize what life is all about
It's hangin' on when your heart
has had enough
It's giving more when you feel like giving up
I've seen the light
It's in my daugter's eyes
In my daughter's eyes I can see the future
A reflection of who I am and what will be
Though she'll grow and someday leave
Maybe raise a family
When I'm gone I hope you'll see how happy
she made me
For I'll be there
In my daughter's eyes
