[Verse 1]
In the wilderness You found me,
Where the road was hard to see.
Through the silence and the shadows,
You were watching over me.
Like a father knows his children,
You remember I am dust.
Father Yahweh, keep me near You;
Teach this weary heart to trust.
[Chorus]
Keep me as the apple of Your eye,
Hold me close when lonely nights go by.
Though the road leads through the sorrow,
You are there in each tomorrow.
Father Yahweh, hear my cry:
Keep me as the apple of Your eye.
[Verse 2]
Zion thought You had forgotten,
Thought Your love had turned away.
But You spoke of deep compassion,
Love that does not fade with day.
“On My palms I have engraved you”—
What a promise to hold dear.
When my heart feels lost, remind me
You remember; You are near.
[Chorus]
Keep me as the apple of Your eye,
Hold me close when lonely nights go by.
Though the road leads through the sorrow,
You are there in each tomorrow.
Father Yahweh, hear my cry:
Keep me as the apple of Your eye.
[Verse 3]
Let me treasure Your commandments
As I guard my precious sight.
Write Your wisdom deep within me;
Let Your Word become my light.
Let me hear and follow Yeshua,
Let compassion guide my hands.
May I care for those around me
As a child who understands.
[Bridge]
You have never promised sunshine
Every mile along the way.
But no trouble, fear, or sorrow
Has the power to steal Your love away.
When You teach me, let me listen;
When You lead me, help me stand.
Even death cannot defeat You—
My tomorrow’s in Your hands.
[Final Chorus]
Keep me as the apple of Your eye,
Give me faith when tears have dimmed the sky.
Through the night and through the sorrow,
I will trust You with tomorrow.
Father Yahweh, hear my cry:
Keep me as the apple of Your eye.
[Outro]
Precious in Your sight,
Remembered through the night.
Father Yahweh, keep me nigh—
The apple of Your eye.
