I fell awake this morning

And thought I saw the sun

On it's way down

And this evening when the sky got bright

I realized that I'd been turned around

So, Lord I've come, again

To ask you what it is

And where in His eyes

And if my hands weren't worthy, Lord

I never could touch your shining face, again

I touched it as a child

I could see it for my brother

And I saw Him smiling gentle

Your shining face upon the flowers

And I recalled the times

When I could come to you

With open heart and mind

Knowing that the best, dear Lord

You'd lead me through the valley one more time

So, now I stand before you, Lord

To pray that you will wash again my spirit

And if you'll cleanse my dirty hands

I'd love to touch your shining face, again

For I touched it as a child

I could feel it for my brother

And I saw His smiling truth through

Your shining face among the clouds

(Face among the clouds)

Yes, we touched it as a child

(Yes we touched it as a child)

We could feel it for each other

(We could feel it for each other)

And we saw a smiling brother

(And we saw Him smiling brother)

His shining face among the clouds.
