LORD, OPEN MY EYES

Lord, open my eyes, for this is my plea.
Open my eyes - show Jesus to me.

Such wonderful things are found in Your word.
Straight from our God, such wonders are heard.
The glories of Christ; His beauty on high;
Pictures of Him; throughout His word lie -

Examples from the Old Testament shine;
Scenes from the Book, they all do combine.
The words from His mouth, His acts and His deeds,
Each in its place, my soul on them feeds.

His beautiful life lived all before men,
Showed His deep love, and on display when,
His beauty divine, by men set aside;
Placed in God's word, will always abide.

Lord, open my eyes, for this I request -
Beauties to see, from Your treasure chest.
