Larry Norman - Under The Eye lyrics

When I was alone, all on my own
I'd sit myself down and take a look around
I'd think about my life
All the trouble and strife
And the things which went wrong
And lasted so long

When I was feeling bad, maybe lonely and sad
I'd put my hands to my head
And wonder where life led
And where I was going to
When my journey was through
But meanwhile up high I was
Always under the Eye

The mystery of love, the push and the shove
Of friendship betrayed, of plans I mislaid
The oceans I crossed, the things that I lost
And the world in my hand
As dreams turned to sand

All the agony of pride of emotion that died
Like a statue of stone
I thought I was all alone
Oh but that was just a lie
Darkness magnified 'Cause somewhere up high
I was always under the eye

I shouldered my load
Then I took off down the road
I drove in my car, and I played my guitar
Mon

I crashed in a plane
I really damaged my brain
And then I layed in my bed with
All this music in my head

The years have rolled by
I've watched the past die
But feelings remained like
Mercy much strained like a seed left unsown
Like a leaf that was blown
Like a man who was blind
There was a lock on my mind

Then a man came to me and he held out the key
And the lock hinge was blown
I had never been alone
Yeah, that ws just a lie, darkness magnified
And though I was not away
All the time my Father was there
