VERSE 1 I’ve read your story as a child So much to look up to Why would you leave your kingdom Come to distant shores to serve us God’s Madcap, they named you I grew up and you faded But your love for Jesus I tried To live out in my own way CHORUS Miss Blue Eyes Did you finally get it in heaven Whatever was missing on Earth The Saviour you loved and adored Worshipped with தமிழ் and poetry Miss Blue Eyes I saw the vapours of your world Teak, stone and Japanese styles Tears fell, standing where you stood Decades and cultures ago Miss Blue Eyes Aren’t I glad you had my brown eyes VERSE 2 I heard about the first girl Saved from modern slavery I heard about the tiger Did you really go searching Your friends, your mum, your girls Your faith that caused it all The object lessons you drew From every object you kept around you (Chorus) BRIDGE You know more of my mother Than I ever did You know more of this land Than I’ve ever found out I felt so unworthy As I knelt above your grave Strength and inspiration Your story rekindled within LAST CHORUS: Miss Blue Eyes Can’t wait to meet you up there To tell you of my own little prayer For a voice like Mr Schlitt To sing rock songs for Jesus Miss Blue Eyes My friend hasn’t happened yet To tell me why God said no But your story gave me rest I am content with my life Miss Blue Eyes Aren’t I glad you had my brown eyes
