Does anybody recognize these words as part of a song and if so what is it please? Tell me why the sun does shine, tell me why God made you mine.
Thanks!
Pam
Tell me why the stars do shine.
Tell me why the ivy twines.
Tell me why the sky's so blue
And I will tell you just why I love you.
Because God made the stars to shine.
Because God made the ivy twine.
Because God made the sky so blue.
Because God made you, that's why I love you.
I really think that God above
Created you for me to love.
He picked you out from all the rest
Because He knew that I'd love you the best.
The song is "I See the Moon and the Moon Sees Me."
I used to sing this song to my baby sister when she was tiny. It begain "I see the moon and the moon sees me, and the moon sees the somebody I'd like to see; So God bless the Moon and God bless me, and God bless the somebody I'd like to see." The it it went: God sent you down, from above, he sent you down just for me to love; He picked you out from all the rest, because He knew I'd love you the best." It was a very simple tune.
I see the moon (and) the moon sees me
The moon sees the somebody I'd like to see
God Bless the moon and God Bless me
And God Bless the somebody I'd like to see.
It seems to me that God above
Created you for me to love
He picked you out from all the rest
Because he knew I loved you best
I once had a heart as good as new
But now it's gone from me to you
Take care of it as I have done
For you have two and I have none
If I get to heaven and you're not there
I'll carve your name on a golden stair
A way up high for all to see
Just how much you mean to me
