Father, open our eyes, that we
may see, to follow thee. Oh lord
grant us, thy lovin’ peace, and let
all dissension cease. Let our fait,
each day increase,
and Master – Lord please-
Open our eyes, open our eyes-

He has given us, hills and mountains, he
has given us, level places.
He has given us food and clothing,
given us shelter from the storm and the rain-
And all that he provided,
kept us shelter from the storm and the rain-

Grant us thy lovin’ peace,
and let all dissension cease,
let our faith each day increase,
and Master – Lord please
Open our eyes, open our eyes
