Author: Clara H. Scott Hymnal: Favorite Hymns of Praise #278 (1967) Hymnal Title: Favorite Hymns of Praise Refrain First Line: Silently now I wait for Thee Lyrics: 1 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!
2 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 ears, illumine me,
Spirit divine!
3 Open my mouth, and let me bear
Gladly the warm truth ev'rywhere;
Open my heart, and let me prepare
Love with Thy children thus to share.
Silently now I wait for Thee,
Ready, my God, Thy will to see,
Open my heart, illumine me,
Spirit divine!
