But Now My Eyes Are Open Lyrics
You opened up my ears to hear
The imperfections of my heroes
And those I held up to the sun
Are cracked and broken, every one
They spoke words of fire
They held my desire
But just because they look like you
Doesn't mean they honor you no no
Chorus:
But now my eyes are open
And I will only hope in you you you
You're the only hero
You're the only one who will never let me down
You'll never let me down
How could flesh and blood begin
To lift me up out of my sin?
Yet you became the very thing
I looked for in earthly kings
I was longing for you
Though I did not know you
I thought I would hear your voice
If I made the same noise
Chorus
There has always only been you
Bright shining as the sun
