Open My Eyes, That I May See

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.

Silently now I wait for Thee,

Ready my God, Thy will to see;

Open my eyes, illumine me,

Spirit Divine!

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,

Open my mouth,

And let me bear

Gladly the warm

Truth everywhere;

Open my heart,

And let me prepare,

Love with Thy children

Thus to share.
