Open My Eyes
Open My Eyes
Lord, give me vision, let me see.
Open my eyes help me to achieve.
Like an Eagle that’s in flight.
Give me true vision and sight.
Help me not to doubt but believe.
Whenever the safe nest, I do leave.
While I soar over the lowly clouds
In reverence to you not proud.
Your caring heart to be in mine
Letting others know what is thine.
You are the one I wish to please,
Time for prayer if I want to seize.
Grant me wisdom for the task.
Enable me to touch a heart, I ask.
People that are in the valley below.
Where the steps are hard, spirit low.
If you give me the words to say.
I want to show them a brighter day.
Shining forth like a beacon-light.
A brand new day for those in the night.
Cleanse the inner parts of my heart.
Let your Spirit come in and impart.
Simply I yearn for your fire
To ignite a spark or to inspire.
Who am I but a vessel to fill?
Guide me according to your will.
Pour love into my heart from you.
For they long to hear what is true.
