Open my eyes so my soul may gaze and see
A clear view of your unseen reality
Open my eyes and set me free
Be my vision for eternity!
For you hold the keys to the places
Where I have closed and locked the doors.
Open them up and enter in
That they might be swept clean one more!
Open my hands so I can freely give away
the gifts of your Spirit as I live each day
Open my hands so you can fill them I pray
Let my hands do all the things that you say!
Open my Heart so your love is what remains
That your redeeming blood may surge through my veins
And flow into my life and all it contains
Open my heart, make a place where love reigns!
For you hold the keys to the places
Where I have closed and locked the doors.
Open them up and enter in
That they might be swept clean one more!
Open my mind so I can come to a place
Whee I throw away all else to seek your face
Open my mind and my wisdom replace
Let me accept what is covered by grace!
