Through the window of my eyes Memories of being a child I was never afraid when you were by my side And I grew without a care Knowing you were always there To protect? me, to raise me, Oh my Father dear
How I relied on your strength and your? wisdom Your calm patient guidance, your kind loving gaze Lord let whatever I've done that has pleased You Rain down like blessings and mercy on them
What would I be if not for you Teaching me how to live and grow Now I can only hope that I have? made you proud Oh how little thanks we show To the Lord who has bestowed Parents who would sacrifice for? us heart, breath and bone
How I rely on your strength and your wisdom Your calm patient guidance, your kind loving gaze Lord let whatever I've done that has pleased You Rain down like blessings and mercy on them
And now I understand, now I've grown into a man The cares that must have burdened you, the fearless love you held So deep within, and as I gaze into my children's eyes It's only now oh Father that I truly realize
How? I rely on your strength and your wisdom Your calm patient guidance, your kind loving gaze Lord let whatever I've done that has pleased You Rain down like blessings and mercy on them
Oh if I ever caused you grief Then I ask you, forgive me For the sake of the one sent to all as mercy How the days and seasons fade I have grown and you have aged Yet? as I lend you my hand, know one thing stays the same
I still rely on your strength and your wisdom Your calm patient guidance, your kind loving gaze Lord let whatever I've done that has pleased You Rain down like blessings and mercy on them
