Open my eyes that I may
see when Jesus comes to me.
Open my ears that I may hear the teaching of the seer.
Open my heart that I may feel that His love is for real.
Open my eyes that I may see the coming of our King.
There was a man on the
road who no one seemed to know,
But He knew of a great many things.
Somehow two of His friends just couldn’t comprehend
That this stranger was actually their King.
How could He go unrecognized though they saw them with their eyes,
‘til the time that He chose to reveal
through the breaking of the bread and the words that He had said
at the table, where they had shared their meal.
And I know hindsight
is twenty-twenty,
But how can they have missed the Lord?
And I know hindsight is twenty-twenty,
But Him we cannot ignore.
Open my eyes that I may
see when Jesus comes to me.
Open my ears that I may hear the teaching of the seer.
Open my heart that I may feel that His love is for real.
Open my eyes that I may see the coming of our King.
Open my eyes that I may
see when Jesus comes to me.
Open my ears that I may hear the teaching of the seer.
Open my heart that I may feel that His love is for real.
Open my eyes that I may see the coming of our King.
He said, “how foolish
you are, and how slow of the heart
To believe all the prophets had spoken.
They said that Christ would suffer things, and through his suffering would bring
all His glory to the people then awoken.”
When He was gone they realized that their hearts had burned inside
As they walked with Him down that dusty road.
For the scriptures that He spoke to their hearts as they awoke
To the Spirit of the Savior who arose.
And I know hindsight
is twenty-twenty,
But how can they have missed the Lord?
And I know hindsight is twenty-twenty,
But Him we cannot ignore.
Open my eyes that I may
see when Jesus comes to me.
Open my ears that I may hear the teaching of the seer.
Open my heart that I may feel that His love is for real.
Open my eyes that I may see the coming of our King.
Open my eyes that I may
see when Jesus comes to me.
Open my ears that I may hear the teaching of the seer.
Open my heart that I may feel that His love is for real.
Open my eyes that I may see the coming of our King.
Open my eyes that I may
see when Jesus comes to me.
Open my ears that I may hear the teaching of the seer.
Open my heart that I may feel that His love is for real.
Open my eyes that I may see the coming of our King.
Open my eyes that I may
see the coming of our King.
Open my eyes that I may see… the coming of our King.
