Open my eyes that I may see

|
| 1. | Open my eyes that I may see |
| | Glimpses of truth Thou hast for me; |
| | Place in my hands the wonderful key |
| | That shall unclasp and set me free. |
| | Silent now I wait for Thee, |
| | Ready, my God, Thy will to see; |
| | Open my eyes, illumine me, |
| | Spirit Divine! |
| 2. | Open my ears that I may hear |
| | Voices of truth Thou sendest clear; |
| | And while the wave notes fall on my |
| | ear, |
| | Everything false will disappear. |
| 3. | Open my mouth and let me bear |
| | Tidings of mercy everywhere; |
| | Open my heart and let me prepare |
| | Love with Thy children thus to share. |
| 4. | Open my mind that I may read |
| | More of Thy love in word and deed; |
| | What shall I fear while yet Thou dost |
| | lead? |
| | Only for light from Thee I plead. |
