Look Me in the Eye Lyrics

[ [ [ / / / /

I found a letter I wrote to You in the bottom of the drawer
Simple words, simple point of view that I don't have much anymore
It said "I don't want fortune, I don't want fame
I only want the treasure that time can't take away"
Chorus:
Look me in the eye, tell me if You see
Traces of Yourself growing here in me
Tell me if You find Your heart in mine
I pray You'll see Your light when You look me in the eye
Many years have come and gone since I wrote that page
And somehow with the passing time I've let that truth slip away
Dear Lord remind me each and every day
That Your holiness, Your godliness, is all that will remain
...I pray You'll see Your light when You look me in the eye
Now I see You much too dimly, but someday we'll stand eye to eye
When I see You I want to hear You say that You were proud of my life
Lord touch my heart, and center my soul
Till all I do is for You alone
...I pray You'll see Your light when You look me in the eye

repeat VAMP and fade
Look me in the eye
