Watching Eyes
Up in the sky
Which saw the serpent on the root;
Saw as eager hands reached up
To touch the bittersweet forbidden fruit.
Watching Eyes
Up in the sky
Which saw a Baby in the straw
Saw the shepherds kneeling round
To greet their Savior with unhidden awe.
Watching Eyes
Up in the sky
Which saw the soldiers coming armed
Saw the whip bite into sacred flesh
The Son of God in crown of thorns is garbed.
Watching Eyes
Up in the sky;
He saw the hammer strike the nail
Heard the anguished lonely shout
And knows for sure His saving plan can never fail.
Watching Eyes
Up in the sky
Which saw the women reach the grave
Saw the Figure standing near
The Son of God who all of us he died to save.
