O that mine eye might closed be

Author: Thomas Ellwood, 1639-1713/14 Meter: 8.8 Appears in 6 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O that mine eye might closed be To what concerns me not to see. 2 That deafness might possess my ear To what concerns me not to hear. 3 That truth my tongue might ever tie From speaking words of vanity. 4 That no vain thought might ever rest Or be conceived within my breast. 5 So that in deed and word and thought, Glory may unto God be wrought. 6 But are wishes? Lord mine eye Is fixed on Thee, to Thee I cry! 7 Cleanse, Lord, and purify my heart And make it clean in every part. 8 And when ’tis pure, Lord, keep it so, For that is more than I can do.
