Courtney Orlando - Eyes Open lyrics

Good evening brethren, let's go a special direction Look back, let's meet a young'n that was born in 87 His parents was so happy, rejoicing at they new blessing He breathes life, at the same time d**h without a question His parents gazed in his eyes, adoring him as he hollers He got his eyes from his mama, he got his nose from his father Its crazy how this baby, is so precious but I'm saddened He got his name from grandfather, his depravity from Adam That's how it goes and hey look as he grows You can see he's so blind, his eyes seem as they closed He's so weak and it shows, he can't keep from what He knows Is wrong, he knows it's bad but dag he wants it though And all throughout his years, he looks good to his peers And his parents, and his self but if we could only peer On the inside, we'd see that from the start it was dark Until a Savior stepped in and gave Him a new heart, eyes opened! I know I once was blind, Oh Lord but now I see You sent your Son from above to come and rescue me He's the light of the world, maker of you and me His Spirit shines so bright for all of us to see Now that my vision's clear, Oh Lord we sing your praise And pray that those in the world would turn and seek your face Father we thank you for eyes to see so we can know you and love you forever So that we can love you forever So that we can love you forever Yeah I was blinded in the past, like my mind was in the trash Incapable of doing good or even finding him the task Was beyond what I could grasp, my righteousness is rags So He had to do all the work, by His design you do the math The math, who get's the glory, hey who get's the praise? Predestined, I was elected, resurrected from the grave Plus His loved was never based on my past or present state On anything that I obtained I was a mess but blessed with grace By grace, I'm in love with Him He gave me something within He doesn't love me cause of me nope He loves me because of Him No He didn't have to save and raise me when I was dead But He dragged me out the morgue, now the praise of His name is spread He died for all He would save, it's crazy the Savior bled Erasing taking my dread, and gave me some grace instead The kind I wouldn't resist, I came praise be to Him And I'm confident if I'm in Him Ima make it to the end with eyes open I know I once was blind, Oh Lord but now I see You sent your Son from above to come and rescue me He's the light of the world, maker of you and me His Spirit shines so bright for all of us to see Now that my vision's clear, Oh Lord we sing your praise And pray that those in the world would turn and seek your face Father we thank you for eyes to see so we can know you and love you forever So that we can love you forever So that we can love you forever Now that my eyes is open, gotta keep that Bible open Not just so that I can quote Him, I'm hopin that I'll behold Him Until I lay in the grave, I'm praying I'll stay in motion Gazing with eyes of faith He gave me baby, I'm focused I'm praying all through my 20's I'll see Him in 20/20 Looking at Him till I look like Him almost like His twin He's So merciful, His Word is so packed I'm telling many About the glory of Christ, tryna rep Him with all that's in me I know I once was blind, Oh Lord but now I see You sent your Son from above to come and rescue me He's the light of the world, maker of you and me His Spirit shines so bright for all of us to see Now that my vision's clear, Oh Lord we sing your praise And pray that those in the world would turn and seek your face Father we thank you for eyes to see so we can know you and love you forever So that we can love you forever So that we can love you forever
