When You Look At Me ~
My Dearest Friend, when you look at me,
What do you see, can you find God's love
Shining there for you to see
As you listen to my heart,
What can you feel
I have a love within my eyes
For you forever real
My soul is strong
My mind is sure
When you look
Do you also hear
Are you forever near
I watch the sky from my window pane
Will my words bring back souls
Who lost their names
I live in you, you live in me
I have seen through time
To what is known as eternity
When you look at me
What do you see
There is always hope
If we know how to cope
The morning turns to night
Let the stars shine in my light
People like you, have helped me come through
Let me hold your hand
The Lord God created us to understand
So when you see the very life of me
Know that you are my Dearest Friend
You are in my heart,
God is not ready yet
For us to part
