When God looks down from heav’n above,
What does He see in me?
Does He discern this child yearns
To sit upon His knee?
He sees the need for love I feel,
The hunger to belong,
And sees the struggle that I face
In choosing right o’er wrong.
Because of Jesus’ sacrifice
God sees my sins no more,
They’re covered by Christ’s righteousness
Which He cannot ignore.
And though I stumble as I walk
He is so proud of me,
For when I fall I don’t give up,
To Him I simply flee.
He sees my heart’s desire,
He sees my soul’s intent,
He gives me strength to overcome,
His life I represent.
He loves me as He loves His Son,
How can I comprehend
A love so pure, so deep, so strong
That it will never end!
He sees me as a treasure
More valuable than gold,
And one day when He calls me home,
I’ll feel His arms enfold.
