I Need Glasses

Submitted by SURPRISINGPERSON on Mon, 12/24/2018 - 22:22

Open the eyes of my heart, Lord;
Open the eyes of my heart,
To see Your mercy and Your grace,
See the beauty of your face...

Hey, what's this?
My eyes are clouded by a mist!
Even when my eyes are open,
I still can't see your light.

Please give me glasses, Lord;
Spiritual glasses so I can see
Your mercy and Your grace,
See the beauty of your face.

This is beautiful. <3 The title is indeed very creative!! It perfectly annunciates the poem, too. I love this.
