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 (ears, heart), 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. Refrain
Open my mouth, and let it bear,
Gladly the warm truth everywhere;
Open my heart and let me prepare
Love with Thy children thus to share. Refrain
