	Story Behind the Song I was very busy with a number of album projects at the studio where I am an engineer and during one of the few breaks I took during this time, I sat down at the keyboard and began playing a riff that became the introduction to this song. I had been wanti ng to write a song for my wife for a number of years but never had the time to sit down and craft it. One of the projects I was working on at the time was a solo project for John Parker, the minister of music at First Baptist Church of Keller, Texas. He had written a number of original songs and I enjoyed his style, but most importantly, I liked his lyrics, which has always been my weak point. i asked if he would be willing to contribute on the lyrics of this song and he took my ideas and I do believe h e has crafted a truly beautiful set of lyrics.o Lyrics APPLE OF MY EYE For Linda and Audra As I walk along this road of life I find so much time is wasted Worrying about the little things That make our life complicated But in my cluttered world You shine your warmth and your light Driving away the shadows d im You save me from the night You’re the apple of my eye The joy of my heart The love of my life A work of art created by God’s own hand Crafted so carefully You were woven from the start In the image of the Father’s love How beautiful you are You’re t he apple of my eye As I think about what God has done I see all the grace He’s given He sacrificed His only Son So we might be forgiven And when I drift away From Him, and my feet start to roam God gently guides my wandering heart And brings me safely h ome We’re the apple of His eye The joy of His heart The love of His life A work of art created by His own hand Crafted so carefully We were woven from the start In the image of the Father’s love How beautiful we are We’re the apple of His eye Instrumental Crafted so carefully We were woven from the start In the image of the Father’s love In the image of the Father’s love How beautiful we are We’re the apple of His eye
