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.
Silently
now I wait for Thee,
Ready,
my God, Thy will to see;
Open
my eyes, Illumine me,
Spirit
Divine!
2
Open
my ears that I may hear
Voices
of truth Thou sendest clear;
And
while the wavenotes 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!
3
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!
