MAY MY EYES SEE

MAY MY EYES SEE

As I stand before God’s throne I gaze upon a sight that
man has never known.

My eyes are closed and yet I see things that eyes have
never seen.

The brightness of His countenance will light the path
of man and guide him in the way that he
should go.

To describe God is not for man to do and if I open my
mouth to try my voice will not be heard.

That which I have seen makes me glow inside, but it is
not for me to describe.

It is by faith that man must accept things that are
hidden from his view.

My ears are filled with the strains of music, never
before heard by the ears of man.

To describe the tunes that I have heard cannot be done
by the likes of me, because the words of man
are too feeble and frail. The music of
heaven is beyond the ability
of man to conceive.

Let my mind be open so that I may understand the
voice that only I can hear.

My neighbors can hear it too if only they would be
still and listen and have an attentive ear.

To witness the beauty of God’s throne is for all to see,
it is not just for me.

God’s powers are far beyond the feeble mind of man
to understand.

May my eyes see and my mind understand that which
God has in store for me.


May I walk in God’s garden of love and hear His voice
from above.

May His love fill my heart with joy and dispel the myths
that men set before me.

O Lord help me walk Thy path so straight, if I stumble
let it be in Thy hands that I tumble.
