|
I opened my eyes after I first prayed |
|
It was a Thursday and I was just hurting in the worst way |
|
It became the first hour of the first day |
|
Of the first time in my life when everything now it first changed |
|
And I remember when ya first came, my eyes were opened wide |
|
When I cried and called on your first name |
|
In my mind I was dealing with the worst pain |
|
And every time I was feeling just the worst strain |
|
Born into sin cause that's when the curse came |
|
My life's a highway and I'm stuck up in the worst lane |
|
I'm going nowhere and I can't even reverse things |
|
But you opened up my eyes when your words came |
|
Lord you opened up my eyes, my eyes are open wide |
|
Chorus |
|
My eyes are open wide (I was blind) |
|
My eyes are open wide (But now I'm free) |
|
My eyes are open wide (I was blind) |
|
My eyes are open wide (but now I see) |
|
Now sometimes life is truly hard |
|
But now that my eyes are open wide |
|
I see you for who you are |
|
You light my way as the bright shining morning star |
|
You give me the life and strength to be going far |
|
And when this world had me pulled apart |
|
You told me never give up, never give in, and keep on holding on |
|
Knowing that you got my back keeps me going on |
|
I'm focused on you while I walk the path I'm chosen on |
|
Hoping on you is exactly what keeps me going strong |
|
I'm going on through on track and rolling on |
|
Holding to you even if these things be going wrong |
|
My eyes are open wide you're the one I focus on |
|
Chorus |
|
Now that my eyes are open wide |
|
I see you for who you are |
|
I see you for what you are |
|
Now that my eyes are open wide |
|
I see you for who you are |
|
I see you for what you are |
