The Face Behind The Smile
Here is a face a sweet little innocent face
A face of joy, a face of fear, a face of love
when no ones near.
A face of peace, a face of dispair, a face of
anger, because no one cares. A face starring
into space, looking for the saviors face,
that precious face so full of mercy and grace
A face that shed tears and cry out in fear
when the enemy is near. Pressing toward the
spirit of Hope with Love and Care knowing
Jesus is the one who can get you there.
The little face so bright and fair, hold up
your head, you know you are surrounded by
angels that care.
