Lord You opened our eyes to your light
So we could apprehend
The beauty of your glorious face
We were created for this End
You opened the eyes of our hearts
And became the light of our souls
It was by Your illumination
That You are our reason and goal
Lord open the eyes of more hearts today
Lord give vision to the blind we pray
So that men may come to know your living way
Through the Glorious Gospel of Christ
Lord with open eyes we can see You
Are the Good and the Beautiful and the True
And savor You like we were created to
Through the Gospel of the Glory of Christ
Lord open new eyes to Your True Light
Through Your Word Lord open new minds
To the beauty of your excellencies
That with awakened hearts they may find
Lord open the eyes of those in need
Like moths fly to a flaming light
With open eyes may they see your face
Transformed by the glorious sight
So we spread the Gospel to those we meet
Walking this earth with beautiful feet
Until Your Kingdom becomes complete
Through the Gospel of the Glory of Christ
Then with open eyes Your truth is believed
By the light of Creation faith is conceived
And by this fresh birth, new life is received
Through the Gospel of the Glory of Christ
Through the Gospel of the Glory of Christ
Through the Gospel of the Glory of Christ
