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 much like my own...
Give me perception to make me aware
that scattered profusely on life's throughfare
Are the best gifts of God that we daily pass by
As we look at the world with an unseeing eye.
