03. Eyes of Love
(Lyrics and Music by Aneel Aranha)

Thank you, Lord, I thank you, Lord
From the bottom of my heart, I thank you, Lord
For all you've done and are doing, I thank you, Lord
I could never find one like you
A God with eyes of love so true 
And for your eyes of love, I thank you, Lord

You made me, Lord, to be just like you
Asking me only to be true
As you looked at me with eyes of love
You set me down in a world so fine
Making me almost divine
Giving me every blessing from above

Then the devil came along 
Playing his wicked evil song
And like a fool, I looked away from you
O, I took a fateful bite
To quench my foolish appetite 
And I just broke your beautiful heart in two 

For years thereon, I was lost in sin
A slave to the devil and bonded to him
But you still looked at me with eyes of love
So you sent your son, and he took my place
Dying on the cross in an act of grace
Just so I could get home and be with you

Now I am born again
Washed and whole and freed from sin
And you're still looking at me with eyes of love
I will be forever yours
Son of the Father and friend of the Son
And that is why I want to thank you, Lord

Thank you, Lord, I thank you, Lord
From the bottom of my heart, I thank you, Lord
For all you've done and are doing, I thank you, Lord
I could never find one like you
A God with eyes of love so true 
And for your eyes of love, I thank you, Lord
