open my eyes that i see

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.

CHORUS
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, Everything false will disappear.

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.
