Make Your Eyes Open

M-ake your eyes open, 
A-s the dawn begins to break; 
R-ainy night has turned
I-nto a new chance to take.
E-arly in the morning as the sun starts to rise; 
L-etting you wake up from bed after opening your eyes.

D-o make your eyes open
E-very moment of your life; 
L-et the two of them gaze
A-t the bright side of strife.

R-ead what you have seen
O-n October first fair day; 
S-urely you can understand
A-nother light is on your way.

A-llow your eyes to open, 
L-et them not close anytime; 
B-ecause the end is near, 
E-ven so nearer this clime.
R-ecognize what you have read, 
C-onnecting you with God in heaven; 
A-ccept the truth from above, make your eyes open.
