Open my eyes that I may see
-
Open my eyes that I may see
glimpses of truth Thou hast for me;
place in my hands the wonderful key
that shall unclasp and set me free.
Silently now I wait for Thee,
ready, my God, Thy will to see;
open my eyes, illumine me,
Spirit divine!
-
Open my ears that I may hear
voices of truth Thou sendest clear;
and while the wave-notes fall on my ear,
everything false will disappear.
Silently now I wait for Thee,
ready, my God, Thy will to see;
open my eyes, illumine me,
Spirit divine!
-
Open my mouth and let me bear
tidings of mercy everywhere;
open my heart and let me prepare
love with ‘My children thus to share.
Silently now I wait for Thee,
ready, my God, Thy will to see;
open my eyes, illumine me,
Spirit divine!
-
Open my mind, that I may read
more of Thy love in word and deed:
what shall I fear while yet Thou dost lead?
Only for light from Thee I plead.
Silently now I wait for Thee,
ready, my God, Thy will to see;
open my eyes, illumine me,
Spirit divine!

Thine be the glory
-
Thine be the glory,
risen, conquering Son,
endless is the victory
Thou o’er death hast won;
angels in bright raiment
rolled the stone away,
kept the folded grave-clothes
where Thy body lay.
Thine be the glory,
risen, conquering Son,
endless is the victory
Thou o’er death hast won.
-
Lo! Jesus meets us,
risen from the tomb;
lovingly He greets us,
scatters fear and gloom;
let the Church with gladness
hymns of triumph sing,
for her Lord now liveth;
death hath lost its sting.
Thine be the glory,
risen, conquering Son,
endless is the victory
Thou o’er death hast won.
-
No more we doubt Thee,
glorious Prince of life;
life is nought without Thee:
aid us in our strife;
make us more than conquerors,
through Thy deathless love:
bring us safe through Jordan
to Thy home above.
Thine be the glory,
risen, conquering Son,
endless is the victory
Thou o’er death hast won.
