And when her eyes are on the child

1. There’s a mother whose name is Mary
And she’s traveled very far
But she’s not thinking about her journey now
There’s a baby in her arms

R: And when her eyes are on the child
She finds all the strength she needs
All the struggles and the trials
Just turn into perfect peace
She can even stop and smile
When her eyes are on the child

2. There’s a soldier whose name is Terry
And he’s serving far from home
It’s the first time that he’s spent Christmas
Far away and all alone

B: There’s a world of lonely people
Chasing love and chasing styles
Oh but how different their lives could be
With their eyes upon the child
And when our eyes are on the child

R2: TWe find all the strength we need
All the struggles and the trails
Just turn into perfect peace
We can even stop and smile
When our eyes are on the child
We can even stop and smile
When our eyes are on the child
