You Opened My Eyes

By Elton Smith, Larry Holder and Steve Israel

CCLI Number: 3540497

I first wrote the music for this song, then sent it to Larry and Steve. Larry came up with the theme and started the lyrics. Steve and I pitched in to complete the lyrics. Please note that there are some single syllable words that are sung over 2 notes. Silvia Fleming included this song on her new CD, "Gratitude". Follow Silvia's banner below to visit her site and purchase her CD. It's great! - Elton, November 4, 2001

(Verse 1)
I am amazed by the work of Your hand
As the sun rises at Your command,
And in the night, the stars You made
Shine all around me.
Yet all would be loss, had I never known
The mercy and grace You have shown.
Thank You Lord for the love
That opened my eyes!

(Chorus)
You opened my eyes to see
All that my life can be;
All of the faith, the hope, the love
That You can see in me.
Gone is the dark of night
Following in Your light.
Thank You Lord for the love
That opened my eyes!

(Verse 2)
Some things are veiled as we journey on,
Till the day the shadows are gone.
Until that day, I'll walk by faith
And do as You've shown me:
I'll share the love revealed in Your Word
With those who are blind, who've never heard.
Lord, I pray, in Your love
You'll open their eyes!

(Repeat Chorus)
You opened my eyes to see
All that my life can be;
All of the faith, the hope, the love
That You can see in me.
Gone is the dark of night
Following in Your light.
Thank You Lord for the love
That opened my eyes!

(Ending)
Thank You Lord for the love
That opened my eyes!
Thank You Lord for the love
That opened my eyes!

Elton Smith sent me an email saying that Silvia Fleming had two other songs. This one is beautiful. It always makes me confident and happy, and yes, especially about freindship. I have lots of freinds. None of them come in first. There all in the same place. Here's some. Eva Lawson, Hope Williams, Vlada Fitzgerald, Melissa Jackson, Laura Colgate and more. Whoever thinks these songs up are very imaginative! xxxxxxxxxx

I just love your song. It has blessed me. The music is so lovely. Sylvia does a beautiful rendition. We are missionaries, live in Belgium and I have sung it in French. Well received.
If possible.. is there a way to get a sound track?
