His Eyes by Steven Curtis Chapman
His Eyes
Capo 1
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
