An original, sacred song for children with text by Krista Mason Pace below.
In the Holy
Bible, a script of old
Teaches
truths more precious than that of gold.
When Elisha,
the prophet, was questioned by one
Who did fear
destruction untold.
Then Elisha
asked God if He'd open up his eyes
And the
younger man witnessed, much to his surprise,
That a
heavenly army guarded him.
More be with
us, than be with them.
Jesus passed
a man who was blind from birth.
His
disciples asked, Which man did sin on earth?
Then the Light
of the World taught that He was the One,
To perform
this work of great worth.
Using clay
of His spittle, He opened up his eyes.
After
washing in water, he spoke to the wise,
Once a blind
man, but now I clearly see
Jesus, Son
of God, I believe.
After years
of darkness, a simple prayer
Reached
beyond to Glory and Light sent there.
When young
Joseph lacked wisdom and questioned the One
Who did
shine with brightness so rare.
Then our
Savior taught wisdom and opened up his eyes
Then
preparing this young boy, His gospel to rise.
Restoration
of all things old made new;
Priesthood
power and covenants true.
Now today I
know that my natural eyes
Are still
blinded by sin wrought from Satans lies
But my
Father in Heaven sent Christ as the One
To reclaim
my soul through His cries.
So I offer
my heart as He opens up my eyes
To behold the
sweet peace of His gospel as prize
After much
tribulation, Glory's mine.
Praise to
God and His grand design.
