Heaven is the |
|
FaceHeaven is the face of a little girl |
|
With dark brown eyes |
|
That disappear when she smiles |
|
Heaven is the place |
|
Where she calls my name |
|
Says, "Daddy please come play with me for awhile" |
|
God, I know, it's all of this and so much more |
|
But God, You know, that this is what |
|
I'm aching for |
|
God, you know, |
|
I just can't see beyond the door |
|
So right now |
|
Heaven is the sound of her breathing deep |
|
Lying on my chest, falling fast asleep while |
|
I singAnd |
|
Heaven is the weight of her in my arms |
|
Being there to keep her safe from harm while she dreams |
|
And God, I know, it's all of this and so much more |
|
But God, You know, that this is what |
|
I'm longing for |
|
God, you know, |
|
I just can't see beyond the door |
|
But in my mind's eye |
|
I can see a place |
|
Where Your glory fills every empty space |
|
All the cancer is gone |
|
Every mouth is fed |
|
And there's no one left in the orphans' bed |
|
Every lonely heart finds their one true love |
|
And there's no more goodbye |
|
And no more not enough |
|
And there's no more enemy |
|
No moreHeaven is a sweet, maple syrup kiss |
|
And a thousand other little things |
|
I miss with her gone |
|
Heaven is the place where she takes my hand |
|
And leads me to |
|
YouAnd we both run into |
|
Your armsOh |
|
God, I know, it's so much more than |
|
I can dream |
|
It's far beyond anything |
|
I can conceive |
|
So God, You know, |
|
I'm trusting |
|
You until |
|
I seeHeaven in the face of my little girl |
|
Heaven in the face of my little girl |
