Steven Curtis Chapman
Capo 1
Intro:
C majorC G/BG/B A minorAm G+G FF E minorEm Dm7Dm7
Verse 1:
C majorC G/BG/B A minorAm G+G
Sometimes His eyes are gentle and filled with laughter
FF E minorEm Dm7Dm7
And sometimes they cry
C majorC G/BG/B A minorAm G+G
Sometimes there was a fire of Holy anger
FF E minorEm Dm7Dm7
In Je - sus’ eyes
G+G C majorC G/BG/B
But the eyes that saw hope in the hopeless
A minorAm G+G FF
That saw through the fault to the need
G+G E/G# A minorAm Am/GAm/G
Are the same eyes that look down from Heaven
Dm7Dm7 FF Gsus-G
Into the deepest part of you and me
Chorus:
FF C majorC
And His eyes are always upon us
FF C majorC
His eyes never close in sleep
A minorAm Dm7Dm7
And no matter where you go
G+G E/G# A minorAm Am/GAm/G FF
You will always be in His eyes
C majorC
In His eyes
[Repeat Intro]
Verse 2:
C majorC G/BG/B A minorAm G+G
Sometimes His voice comes calling, like rolling thunder
FF E minorEm Dm7Dm7
Or like driv - ing rain
C majorC G/BG/B A minorAm G+G
And sometimes His voice is quiet, and we start to wonder
FF E minorEm Dm7Dm7
If He knows our name
G+G C majorC G/BG/B
But He who spoke peace to the water
A minorAm G+G FF
Cares more for our hearts than the waves
G+G E/G# A minorAm Am/GAm/G
And the voice that once said You’re forgiven
Dm7Dm7 FF Gsus-G Asus-A
Still says You’re forgiven today, today
Verse 3: (key change up one whole step to D MajorD)
D MajorD A/C#A/C# B minorBm A augmentedA
Sometimes I look above me when stars are shining
G+G D/F#D/F# E minorEm
And I feel so small
D MajorD A/C#A/C# B minorBm A augmentedA
How could the God of heaven and all creation
G+G D/F#D/F# E minorEm
Know I’m here at all
AsusAsus A augmentedA D MajorD B minorBm A augmentedA G+G
But then in the silence, He whispers, My child I created you too
A augmentedA A#dim7A#dim7 B minorBm A augmentedA
And you’re my most precious creation
E minorEm G+G Gsus-G
I even gave my Son for you

His eyes never close in sleep
