"Open our Hearts" Hymn

We have been singing different verses of this hymn each week. The Hymn is "Open My Eyes, That I May See" Words and music by Clara H. Scott. The following are new words/revised words to that hymn to reflect the "Open Hearts, Open Minds, and Open Doors" Theme we have been following for the past 3 weeks. Words by Rev. Rebecca Butler (that's me)!

Open our hearts
That we may do
All of the work
You ask us to
Give us the power
To share and to give
That we may help
Our world to live

Open our minds
To understand
All of the blessings
You have planned
And while we learn
To welcome and love
Send us your grace
From up above

Open our doors
That we may share
All of the gifts
You have us bear
Show us your love
And give us the way
To share with the world
Your hope and grace

Refrain:
Silently now we wait for you
Ready our God your will to do
Open our _____ * and make us new
Spirit Divine.

* (hearts, minds, doors depending on verse)
