Open My Eyes That I May See

1Open 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.

RefrainSilently now I wait for Thee,
Ready, my God, Thy will to see;
Open my eyes, illumine me,
Spirit divine!

2Open my ears, that I may hear
Voices of truth Thou sendest clear;
And while the wave-notes fall on my ears,
Everything false will disappear.

3Open 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.
