Open My Eyes

Open my eyes to see the pearl of surpassing worth.
Open my eyes to see the treasure that's hid in the earth.
Open my eyes, Lord, open my eyes.
Pour out your grace, that I may see the beauty of your face.

Open my eyes to see the glory behind the cross.
Open my eyes to see the riches I gain in loss.
Open my eyes, Lord, open my eyes.
Pour out your grace, that I may see the beauty of your face.

Open my eyes to see the battle that's waged on this ground.
Open my eyes to see your fiery host all around.
Open my eyes, Lord, open my eyes.
Pour out your grace, that I may see the beauty of your face.

Open my eyes to see the world that is passing away.
Open my eyes to see the city that shines like the day.
Open my eyes, Lord, open my eyes.
Pour out your grace, that I may see the beauty of your face.
Open my eyes Lord, open my eyes.
I run this race only to see the beauty of your face.
