Intro: C G/B Am G F Em Dm7 Verse 1:
C                       G/B        Am           G
Sometimes His eyes are gentle and filled with laughter

        F      Em   Dm7
And sometimes they  cry

    C                 G/B     Am    G
Sometimes there was a fire of Holy anger

    F    Em       Dm7
In Je - sus’      eyes

         G                         C      G/B
But the eyes that saw hope in the hopeless

     Am               G             F
That saw through the fault to the need

         G              E/G#          Am    Am/G
Are the same eyes that look down from Heaven

  Dm7             F              Gsus-G
Into the deepest part of you and me
Chorus:
         F               C
And His eyes are always upon us

     F                    C
His eyes never close in sleep

Am      Dm7
And no matter where you go

          G        E/G#     Am   Am/G   F
You will always be in   His eyes

        C
In His eyes
[Repeat Intro] Verse 2:
    C                      G/B           Am        G
Sometimes His voice comes calling, like rolling thunder

        F      Em   Dm7
Or like driv - ing rain

        C                   G/B           Am         G
And sometimes His voice is quiet, and we start to wonder

        F   Em   Dm7
If He knows our name

     G                         C   G/B
But He who spoke peace to the water

       Am            G              F
Cares more for our hearts than the waves

         G              E/G#           Am   Am/G
And the voice that once said You’re forgiven

      Dm7            F        Gsus-G    Asus-A
Still says You’re forgiven today,     today
Verse 3: (key change up one whole step to D)
    D            A/C#           Bm          A
Sometimes I look above me when stars are shining

       G   D/F#  Em
And I feel so    small

     D                A/C#      Bm     A
How could the God of heaven and all creation

          G   D/F#  Em
Know I’m here at    all

    Asus         A           D            Bm       A         G
But then in the silence, He whispers, My child I created you too

     A              A#dim7     Bm    A
And you’re my most precious creation

   Em       G          Gsus-G
I even gave my Son for you
Chorus 2: (key change back down one whole step to C)
         F               C
And His eyes are always upon you

     F                   C
His eyes never close in sleep

Am      Dm7
And no matter where you go

          G        E/G#       Am  Am/G  F  Em
You will always be in    His eyes

    Dm7
No matter where you go

          G               C  G/B   Am   G   F   Em   Dm7
You will always be in His eyes
Coda:
    C                    G/B
Sometimes His eyes were gentle

     Am            C
And filled with laughter
