There is an eye that never sleeps
1
There is an eye that never sleepsBeneath the wing of night;There is an ear that never shutsWhen sink the beams of light.
2
There is an arm that never tiresWhen human strength gives way;There is a love that never failsWhen earthly loves decay.
3
That eye is fixed on seraph throngs;That arm upholds the sky;That ear is filled with angel songs;That love is throned on high.
4
But there 's a power which man can wieldWhen mortal aid is vain,That eye, that arm, that love to reach,That listening ear to gain.
5
That power is prayer, which soars on high,Through Jesus, to the throne;And moves the hand which moves the world,To bring salvation down.
