Open My Eyes | Psalm 119:17–24 | Christian Blues

Open My Eyes is an original Christian blues song inspired by Psalm 119:17–24. Built around a slow acoustic blues sound, deep male vocal, and a prayerful roots feel, the song asks God for understanding, faithfulness, and the wisdom to let His Word guide us through this life. Psalm 119:17–24 speaks of being a sojourner on the earth, longing for God’s Word, facing opposition, and finding counsel in His truth. This song follows that same prayer: “Open my eyes. Let me see what You have spoken. Let Your Word come alive.” If you enjoy Christian blues, acoustic Christian music, Scripture songs, Psalms set to music, Bible study music, and original Christian songs rooted directly in Scripture, I hope this song points you back to God’s Word. Read Psalm 119:17–24 and consider the question behind the song: When the voices around us are loud, whose counsel are we listening to? Lyrics: Be gracious to Your servant Let me live and keep Your Word Open my eyes, that I may behold Wondrous things in Your Word May I walk before You all my days Help me stay faithful to Your name For I am a sojourner on the earth Hide not Your Presence from me Open my eyes Open my eyes Let me see what You have spoken Open my eyes Open my eyes Let Your Word come alive My soul is consumed with longing For Your judgments all the time Do not hide Your Word from me, Lord Let Your Word counsel me When the voices rise around me When they call me from Your way Let my heart remain before You Let me hear what You would say Open my eyes Open my eyes Let me see what You have spoken Open my eyes Open my eyes Let Your Word come alive You rebuke the proud who wander Those who turn from Your commands Take away my scorn and contempt For I will keep Your holy Word in my heart Even princes sit and plot Speaking evil against me Still Your servant will meditate On the words You've given me Let them speak Let them plot Let them counsel against me I will turn To Your Word I will hear what You have spoken They may counsel one another They may rise against my name But Your Word counsels me And Your truth remains Open my eyes Open my eyes Let me see what You have spoken Open my eyes Open my eyes Let Your Word come alive Your truths are my delight They are my counselors I am a sojourner on the earth Keep Your Word before me Be gracious to Your servant Let me live and keep Your Word Open my eyes...
