Whole in the Sight of God

Whole in the Sight of God
Words & Music by Steve Siler

Becky sits in the darkness imagining the sky
Finding her rainbows in the blessings of life
Without crayons she colors the world with her smile Opening eyes by just being a child

She is whole in the sight of God
She is whole in the sight of God
She can see all things through the eyes of the spirit
She is whole in the sight of God

Johnny sits in his wheelchair as the children run and play
Feeling the warm summer sun upon his face
He moves everyone with his laughter and light
and through prayers they lift up for him every night

He is whole in the sight of God
He is whole in the sight of God
He can run to all things in the path of the spirit
He is whole in the sight of God

None of us is perfect
Every life has a measure of trial
But Father we know
How much you love every single child

Katie lives in deep silence where music never plays
Finding her songs in the joys of each new day
Without notes she’s creating a new symphony
‘Cause her gentle sweet soul is it’s own melody

She is whole in the sight of God
She is whole in the sight of God
She can hear all things through the words of the spirit
She is whole in His sight
We are whole in the sight of God
We are whole in the sight of God
We can do all things through the grace of His spirit
We are whole in the sight of God

I just listened to Whole in the Sight of God and I am overwhelmed by the compassion and hope it conveys. Thank you so very much for writing this beautiful music and giving us affirmation that we are doing the Lord’s work in helping these kids who truly are whole in the sight of God.
