Open my eyes

by RONNIE   Apr 13, 2004


All I could do for 2 days was just cry
Asking my self over and over the question why
But seeing my kids face made me pissed
The harm I wished on this man no one should ever wish

When I finally got on my knees to pray
all I could do was cry cause I didn’t know what to say
I finally said really loud “Lord forgive me”
Open my eyes so I could finally see

God said “My child I’ve been here and I seen it all
I was just over there waiting on you to call
You know I will never leave nor forsake you
And you already did what I needed you to do

I said Lord I don’t understand
His reply was get up and take my unchanging hand
What I need now is for you to be still
Everything that happens is my will

Now I need you to stop trying to figure this out
Just know I’m always here for you without a doubt
Vengeance is not yours its always been mine
And you will see my plans unfold in time

Now get up now and I will give you sleep
Cause all I seen you do for 2 days is weep
Lay over here and I will relax your mind
And when you wake there is a blessing you will find

So I layed there and I felt him hold me tight
And he whispered in my ear “this is not your fight”
Rest now my child and everything will be alright

I will wake you by putting the sun in your face
And you will rise with new mercy and grace

I woke up well rested with the day ready to start
And I thanked the Lord for coming into my heart
I walked through the house just praising him name
And I knew after last night things would never be the same

He opened my eyes and now clearly I see
That my God has always been with me

**true story that was so hard for me but i know God is good**
