I had listened to (and led) Open the Eyes of My Heart so many times that I thought I'd offer a needed counter-song. We've already been given eyes, ears, heart, hands, God's Word, life itself as a gift. Our free will, the choice God's given us is now what we need to open. And doing this in community is crucial to our lived expression of inner faith.

We open our eyes that we may see
We open our ears that we may hear
We open our lips that we may sing your praise
You give us the choice, the liberty
You give us the voice, the ability
To open our eyes, open our ears, open our lips.

We open our minds that we may learn
We open our hearts that we may love
We open our hands that we may serve today
You give us the choice, the liberty
You give us the voice, the ability
To open our minds, open our hearts, open our hands.

We open the Word of Life from you
We open the world around us too
We open the way we follow you today
You give us the choice, the libery
You give us the voice, the ability
To open your Word, open your world, open our way

We open our steps that we may move
We open the door that we lets you in
We open the gift you’ve given us again
You give us the choice, the liberty
You give us the voice, the ability
To open our steps, open the door, open the gift.
To open our steps, open the door, open the gift.
