Mother’s Eyes Lyrics by Olivia Lane
Tiny little fingerprints on every window pane
No one can prepare you for the mess one kid can make
It’s what’d you do, it’s where’s your shoes, it’s hurry up and wait
Can’t worry bout tomorrow trying to make it through today
Oh, the never ending days and sleepless nights
Oh, the overwhelming love and sacrifice
Singing Holy holy holy in the ordinary times
I’ve come to know the father’s heart
Through a mother’s eyes
How beautiful the picture as I’m picking up the floor
How many times He’s picked me up, never keeping score
It’s I got you, my mercy’s new, and I couldn’t love you more
I’ll carry you today, like I’ve carried you before
Oh, the never ending days and sleepless nights
Oh, the overwhelming love and sacrifice
Singing Holy holy holy in the ordinary times
I’ve come to know the father’s heart
Through a mother’s eyes
I’ve seen there’s nothing you could do to change my mind
There’s nowhere you can run, and nowhere you can hide
This kind of love I have is faithful, tried and true
The father singing over me, and I’m singing over you
I’m singing over you
Oh, the never ending days and sleepless nights
Oh, the overwhelming love and sacrifice
Singing Holy holy holy in the ordinary times
I’ve come to know the father’s heart
Through a mother’s eyes
I’ve come to know the father’s heart
Through a mother’s eyes
