In My Daughter's Eyes

This song encapsulates what I see when I look at my precious daughter, Liliana. She is such a blessing in my life, and I thank God for her every single day.

In My Daughter's Eyes

Performed by Martina McBride

Written by James Slater

In my daughter's eyes, I am a hero;
I am strong and wise, and I know no fear.
But the truth is plain to see-
She was sent to rescue me;
I see who I wanna be...
In my daughter's eyes.

In my daughter's eyes, everyone is equal;
Darkness turns to light, and the world is at peace.
This miracle God gave to me
Gives me strength when I am weak;
I find reason to believe--in my daughter's eyes.

And when she wraps her hand around my finger;
Oh, it puts a smile in my heart.
Everything becomes a little clearer;
I realize what life is all about.
It's hangin' on when your heart has had enough;
It's giving more when you feel like giving up;
I've seen the light--it's in my daughter's eyes.

In my daughter's eyes, I can see the future,
A reflection of who I am and what will be;
Though she'll grow and someday leave--maybe raise a family--
When I'm gone, I hope you see how happy she made me;
For I'll be there...in my daughter's eyes.
