Open These Eyes

By Jeremy Kendrick

The sun begins to set through the trees
Here I am again, down on my knees
Up to God I beg for wisdom, please

Open these eyes so I can see
Spread these lungs so I can breathe
Melt this heart, set me free

How quickly do I forget
How simple it is to give up and quit

Help me remember these moments
Help me embrace these simple components

Here on your own two feet you’ve stood
Everything you’ve been through you’ve withstood
Anything you want to do, you could
To put in simply, life is good

On my skin the sun lays a kiss
And it’s with that I remember this
Life is bliss
