Open my eyes, that I may see

Lyrics and Music: Clara H. Scott (Alt, Mod. R.Mc.)



Open my eyes, that I may see
The precious truth You have for me;
Place in my hands the wonderful key
That shall unlock and set me free.

Refrain:
Silently now I wait for You 
Longing, O God, Your will to do
Open my eyes, show me what's true
Spirit divine!

Open my ears, that I may hear
Your voice of truth which makes things clear;
And as the Gospel falls on my ear
Make all that's false to disappear.

Open my mouth, and let me bear,
Gladly the Gospel everywhere;
Open my heart and let me prepare
Love with Your children all to share.

Lyrics and Music: Clara H. Scott

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.

Refrain:
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.
