Apple (video excerpt/full lyric below)
© Marie Whitman Held my child when he was small Vowed to love him through it all I imagined we would be A perfectly blessed family The apple of my eye...My son, high in my sky He brought me deep...Waves of devotion His smile is the moon...Over my ocean All too soon our world would change Our sweet son was not the same Doctors and their labels came "Disabled child"...replaced his name The apple of my eye...My son, high in my sky He brought me deep...Waves of devotion His smile is the moon...Over my ocean It's not the way I thought it would be People say they'll pray For my family So was there something I missed Where's your God in all of this? Tell me, where's your God in this? So I learn and I learn again I am perfectly blessed when... I rest my fists and I let go Change my eyes and I see him whole Change your eyes and see what's whole The apple of my eye...My son, high in my sky He brought me deep...Waves of devotion He grew my faith Taught me hope and He fills my heart Splits it wide open.... With a smile like the moon...Over my ocean... |
