She Had Mama?s Eyes

Copyright: April, 2004
Written By: Lisa A. Courtney

Optional Beginning: (Chorus first)

She had Mama?s eyes
She was an Angel in disguise
God sent her to me
To convince me of His love...
For me.

1st Verse:

I?m not a man of many words
(And) I don?t talk about my feelings
But, if you can spare a little time
I?ll tell you a story of mine.

The doctor, ?I?ll be blunt"
The prognosis isn?t good
The cancer?s spread; it?s really bad
Please don?t look so sad.?

Chorus:

She had Mama?s eyes
She was an Angel in disguise
God sent her to me
To convince me of His love?
For me.

2nd Verse:

I?m a big man at 6?2?
But, I?ve never felt so small
I got down on my knee?s and prayed
Please God help me see the way.

I sensed a presence in the room
I felt a gentle touch
Although I didn?t hear a thing
What happened next, I can?t explain!

Chorus:

She had Mama?s eyes
She was an Angel in disguise
God sent her to me
To convince me of His love?
For me.

3rd Verse:

God (He) knew the only one
That could convince me of His love
Was someone that I love and trust
So, He sent Mama to comfort me.

Now, I don?t know what the future holds
Or what my fate will be
But, now I know whatever comes
God watches over me!

Bridge:

The Angel was Mama, you see!

Chorus:

She had Mama?s eyes
She was an Angel in disguise
God sent her to me
To convince me of His love?
For me.

(Optional Tag)

...Of His everlasting love
For me!
