SONG 163
Happy Are These Eyes
1. Jesus loved to share truth and light,
Bringing happiness to our life.
On a mountainside, he taught us how to live.
Seeking God’s will first ev’ry day,
With a humble heart, he would pray.
He was kind to all and ready to forgive.
(CHORUS)
By God’s light, I can see
How to live happily.
By God’s light, I am truly free.
Happy are these eyes because they see!
2. When anxieties come our way,
We will live our lives day by day,
For Jehovah’s hand provides our daily needs.
As the lilies grow in the field,
How the love God shows is revealed!
If he cares for them, I know he’ll care for me.
(CHORUS)
By God’s light, I can see
How to live happily.
By God’s light, I am truly free.
Happy are these eyes because they see!
3. We will build on rock, not on sand.
If a storm should come, we will stand.
Yes, Jehovah’s Word will live in all we do.
Through the narrow gate, we will go.
As he guides our way, blessings flow,
And it leads to life, where all will be made new.
(CHORUS)
By God’s light, I can see
How to live happily.
By God’s light, I am truly free.
Happy are these eyes because they see!
(See also Matt. 7:24.)
