I See
I see a beginning of a smile
a wave of hello
and this lets me know
an orphan can be happy
I see a church boy placing a note
into a homeless mans' hands
and the man beginning to smile
and this lets me know
a prayer does go a long way
I see a young mom in a shelter
and a baby girl in her arms
and this lets me know
a family needs to stick together
Lastly, I see a college student
walking across stage peering into the seats
looking for his father who is not there
and this lets me know
that determination comes a long way
