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 make me see.
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.
Silently now I wait for Thee,
Ready my God, Thy will to see;
Open my ears illumine me, Spirit Divine!
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.
Silently now I wait for Thee,
Ready my God, Thy will to see;
Open my heart, illumine me, Spirit Divine!
Open my mind that I may learn,
More of Thy holy will discern,
Lord, teach my heart by Thy Word revealed
That which Lord Jesus has unsealed.
Silently now I wait for Thee,
Ready my God Thy will to see;
Open my mind, illumine me, Spirit Divine!
