Eyes Open Wide

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
