Open My Eyes, That I May See
Words and Music by Clara H. Scott
Psalm 119:18
"Open thou mine eyes, that I may behold
wondrous things out of thy law."
Open my eyes, that I may see,
Glimpes 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!
Open my ears, that I may hear,
Voices of truth Thou sendest clear;
And while the wave notes fall on my ear,
Ev'rything false shall disappear.
Silently now I wait for Thee,
Ready my God, Thy will to see;
Open my eyes illumine me, Spirit divine!
Open my mouth, and let me bear,
Gladly the warm truth ev'rywhere;
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 eyes illumine me, Spirit divine!
