Open my eyes and I shall see;Incline my heart and I shall desire;
Order my steps and I shall walkIn the ways of your commandments.
O God be my only Lord,And beside you let there be none else,
No one other, none else but you.
Teach me to worship youAnd serve you in all my undertakings
With truth of spirit, with honor of body,With blessings of mouth both in public and private.
Open my eyes and I shall see;Incline my heart and I shall desire;
Order my steps and I shall walkIn the ways of your commandments. Amen.
– Lancelot Andrewes, 1555-1626, alt.
