Lyrics

Intro

God… open my eyes let me see

Verse 1

I have read Your word but the words won’t open I have spoken Your name with a tongue that’s broken the veil still feels drawn and the door seems sealed reaching through silence for something revealed

Pre-Chorus

I bring You my dark I bring You my dust if You ever could trust me to see

Chorus

Open my eyes let me see who You are open my mind let my soul be reborn

Verse 2

I have searched for You where I thought You’d be still longing for You I need You as my light been waiting for You drowning in works searching for truth my striving — nothing

Pre-Chorus

so I bring You my blind I bring You my deaf take the veil from my heart take the weight from my breath

Chorus

Open my eyes let me see who You are open my mind let my soul be reborn open the secret the curtain, the door let me know You — be known let me be Yours — be Yours

Bridge

You are knocking on my door open my ears so I hear… let me hear Your voice let me know Your heart don’t say You never knew me don’t say depart from me open — open — open me ’til the eyes that finally see

Final Chorus

Open my eyes ’til I see who You are open my mind ’til I grasp every sign tear the curtain between us the secret, the door let me know You — let me be known let me be Yours — let me be Yours

Outro

let me be with You let me be with You say You know me…

The Story

“Open My Eyes” is a whispered prayer becoming a scream — a sacred meditation on the ache of not yet seeing. Reading the word and finding it closed. Speaking the Name with a broken tongue. Reaching through silence for something that hasn’t been revealed yet.

It moves from confession, to plea, to the trembling fear beneath every honest prayer: don’t say You never knew me. It’s a song for the ones still knocking — and only now discovering that the knocking has been coming from the other side of the door too.
