I Can See

All at once He walked beside me

Like He'd been there all along

Not a stranger but a Father

Who can sense when something's wrong

And He answered all my questions

And He understood my fears

That somehow vanished now that He was here

Can't you see who walks with you

Can't you hear who speaks your name

Can't you feel something stirring in your heart How His words ring strong and true

Like a once familiar strain

Can the paths we follow from now on be the same

I couldn't bear for Him to leave me

So I begged Him please to stay

Spend the evening, a few moments

Before He went His way

Then like a host He stood and blessed me

Broke the bread and poured the wine

Then I knew there was something there I recognized

Yes, I can see who walks with me

I can hear who speaks my name

I can feel something stirring in my heart

How His words ring strong and true

Like a once familiar strain

And I know I'll never be the same

I can see

And from that moment in time

I felt the emptiness subside

And all the wonder of creation shining through And for that first time in my life

I really looked into His eyes

And saw eternity and suddenly I knew

Yes, I can see
