Encouraging saints around the world since 1991 !!

Our background MIDI is "Open My Eyes",
written by Ralph Merrifield,
performed by Logan Smith (from Arkansas)

 

I'm sending the PDF of the harmonies to "Open My Eyes," 
both a full score and just a lead sheet.  I'm going to keep messing with the backgrounds 
to "Open My Eyes" and see what I can come up with.  

It's really a gorgeous song and I'm glad I stumbled upon it.  It reminds me of this tune 
that I used to do at camps called "Sanctuary," that was just a little 8 bar tune that 
we'd repeat and add different harmonies to.  Very moving in a large group situation.
(Logan from Arkansas)


OPEN MY EYES
(Psalm 119:18)
Prayerfully



D                                          G
Open my eyes that I may behold
                   A7                                 D
Wondrous things from out of Thy Word
                D                          G
Open my eyes that I may behold
                  A7                                 D
Wondrous things from out of Thy Word



(optional verses 2 & 3)
                          D                G
Your Word is a lamp to my feet
           A7               D
And a light for my path
                          D                 G
Your Word is a lamp to my feet
           A7               D      (B7)
And a light for my path

                      E                                   A
The earth is filled with Your love oh Lord
         B7                         E
I will follow all of Your ways
                     E                                    A
The earth is filled with Your love oh Lord
          B7                         D
I will follow all of Your ways

                E                          A
Open my eyes that I may behold
                   B7                                 E
Wondrous things from out of Thy Word
                E                          A
Open my eyes that I may behold
                  B7                                 E
Wondrous things from out of Thy Word

I was looking for songs for my Sunday School class... 
these sound very interesting.  
I sing some of them during devotion services.  
I am a Sunday School teacher and deaconess in a Baptist Church
 
I use "Center Of My Soul"... it is truly beautiful.  Also " Abba Father"
" Bringing The Presence Of Jesus"
, " Holy, Holy, Holy" and  " Open My Eyes".
