<b>He's Watching Me</b> by <i>Al Denson</i><br />Al Denson - He's Watching Me

I had two left feet yet I believed

That I could rise above

I watched the bigger kids

And prayed the coach would put me in

But I sat on the bench

Well my biggest fan sat in the stands

For each and every game

And though he was blind, he listened for

The coach to call my name

“Please coach let me play”

“You see my dad, He’s watching me

Yes, my Dad’s so proud of me

Even though my dad can’t see

He’s watching me”

Well the weeks went by

And summer time was almost at an end

It was a special day I just had to play

May not get this chance again

The coach put me in

And underneath the stars that night

I got my first hit

When I crossed the plate

Tears on my face, I looked up in the stands

I nodded to the empty seat

That used to be my dad’s

Coach said “Sorry son,

Your daddy wasn’t here to see

And I said “Yes he was”

“I guess you didn’t hear the news

My dad, he passed away

And I know Jesus touched his eyes

And for the first time

My dad he’s really watching me

Yes my dad’s so proud of me

Up in heaven Dad can see

He’s watching me

You see my dad he’s watching me

Yes my dad’s so proud of me

Now in heaven Dad can see

He’s watching me

Up in Heaven Dad he sees

He’s watching me”
