God Open My Eyes  
 


God, open my eyes 

so I may see 

And feel Your presence 

close to me... 

Give me strength for 

my stumbling feet 

As I battle the crowd 

on life's busy street. 



And widen the vision 

of my unseeing eyes 

So in passing faces 

I'll recognize 

Not just a stranger, 

unloved and unknown 

But a friend with a heart 

that is much like my own... 



Give me perception 

to make me aware 

That scattered profusely 

on life's thoroughfare 

Are the best gifts of God 

that we daily pass by 

As we look at the world 

with an unseeing eye
