And when I thought of them
It was you I saw in them, my friend
When they mount the stage to stardom
It was you I saw in them, my friend
When the crowd gave them a standing ovation
It was you I saw in them, my friend
When the crowd cheered their exceptional endowment
It was you I saw in them, my friend
When they ministered in songs and lives were blessed
It was you I saw in them, my friend
When I point at them as God's instrument of praise
It was you I saw in them, my friend
I had always seen you in them
You thought you were little
I knew you were a package of greatness
You thought no one would help you stand
I knew I would always be a shoulder to start with
You thought no one believed in you
I proved I was your number one fan
You thought it would take years to attain such great height
I knew my prayers would make it fast
And today, I looked back those years of support and encouragement I once gave
I looked back those years
I would sacrifice my dreams just to make the you I saw in them become reality
I looked back those words of hope and life I whispered to your faint heart
I looked back those support I once gave your soul
And I sighed, because it was you I saw in them, my friend
Dear friend, we may not be close as before today, but I still keep seeing you in them... Dear Lord, let a time come I'll start seeing them in Him.
