Open My Eyes, That I May See (Weekly Hymn Project)

Описание: Today's hymn is "Open My Eyes, That I May See".
As I was recording this hymn, I got a good take fairly quickly and was all ready to move on - till I got listening to the words in the audio recording and realized that I just repeated the first refrain instead of having the slight variation of eyes, ears, and heart. So, had to record it again. But I didn't mind as it's such a good hymn. It almost sounds like a hymn you could sing before reading the Bible. May our minds and hearts receive the truth and then, Lord, guide our mouths in sharing it.

Lyrics:

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!

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.
Silently now I wait for Thee,
Ready my God, Thy will to see,
Open my ears, illumine me,
Spirit divine!

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!
