326. Open My Eyes That I May See

1 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.

Refrain
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 wave-notes fall on my ear,
Everything false will disappear. [Refrain]

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. [Refrain]
