Daddy, I am watching you.

I sit here in my corner,

my eyes are open wide.

My ears listen to what you say,

and what you keep inside.

Daddy, I am watching you.

I see what you do.

I can smell where you have been.

I know when you are lying.

I recognize your sin.

Daddy, I am watching you.You have always been my hero,

you were the one who could stop the show.

I want to be just like you.

When you aren't looking, I copy all that I see you do.

Daddy, I am watching you.

I hurt myself today,

trying to follow in your way.

Daddy, I am watching you.

I am waiting for you to comfort me.

Do you see what you have done?

Do you still recognize your son?

Daddy, I am watching you.

I found a light.

It came out after you left me in the dark.

This light seems to have a way

to heal my broken heart.

Daddy, I am watching you.

My little boy is now watching me.

I remember all I saw.

I know what I don't want him to see.

Daddy, I am watching you.

You lay there quiet now.

My heart is asking how.

Daddy, the curse is broken,

Daddy, memories are the only token.

Daddy, I used to watch you.

I used to copy all I saw you do.

But not anymore.

Not since I saw you walk out the door.

Because Daddy, now my boy watches me.

Now, it is my turn,

and I want Jesus to be all that he can see.

I don't want my little boy to burn.
