Open the Heavens (AOV 2/163)

I have a vague recollection of doing this Brian Boniwell song many years ago, but certainly not lately. It is a gentle 6/8 song with a bridge after the second refrain. The sample gives the feel of the song, but is not an especially strong performance.

Refrain

Open the heavens, Lord; come to your people.

Hide not your face, O God.

Open the heavens, Lord, come to your people.

Open the heavens and come.

Verse 1

Look on the sheep of your pasture, Lord.

Water your vineyard again.

Scattered and broken, return to our aid.

Open the heavens and come.

Refrain

Bridge

Wake, awake, O Israel;

See the light has come.

Rise and clothe yourself in strength,

Know your Lord is near

Verse 2

Lift up your eyes to the heavens, today.

Listen to hear when he comes.

Know that salvation will break like the dawn.

Open the heavens and come.

Refrain

Open the heavens and come.

Open the heavens and come.
