Beautiful and Moving Rendition of 'Open the Eyes of My Heart'

Every Christian should want to become closer to and know God better daily. If that isn’t something a professing Christian wants, are they really a follower of Jesus Christ? Of course, becoming close to Him does not happen instantly and all at once. It’s a process and comes about over the course of a daily walk with the Lord.

We do not instantly become close to someone over a 24 or even a 48-hour period. Instead, a relationship must be formed, and through constant communication between two people and that bond, that relationship becomes stronger and more profound. Much is the same with God.

We'll begin to learn more about Him through prayer and regular reading and studying of His Word. He’ll also start to reveal more about Himself, showing us His will, purpose and direction for our lives.

In a clip posted on YouTube, four gentlemen perform “Open the Eyes of My Heart,” a song about desiring to learn more about and grow closer to Him. While the song’s chorus may be simple, it is so memorable and powerful and should be the desire of every Christian.

“Open the eyes of my heart, Lord

Open the eyes of my heart

I want to see You

I want to see You”

In addition to the beautiful lyrics, the vocal performances are stunning. The three voices heard in this rendition are pitch-perfect for such a heartfelt, moving tune, so smooth, comforting and soothing.

How could you not enjoy this cover? Even major fans of the Michael W. Smith original are bound to find something to like with this version.

Ephesians 5:19 “Speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord;”
