Released on Olivia Records (which was THE Lesbian independent music distributor), it sold a half million copies. Don't know whether Chris is the author or whether it's "traditional". As far as I can remember, it's not an Order song.</div><div>Marshall</div><div style="font-family:times new roman, new york, times, serif;font-size:12pt"><br><div style="font-family:times new roman, new york, times, serif;font-size:12pt"><font size="2" face="Tahoma"><hr size="1"><b><span style="font-weight: bold;">From:</span></b> ALICE M BAUMBACH <abaumbach@new.rr.com><br><b><span style="font-weight: bold;">To:</span></b> Colleague Dialogue

Thank you Nancy. I love this song too. Don't remember it from Order singing. Appreciate the words. Saved me some transcription time!<br><br>Nancy Lanphear <nancy@songaia.com> wrote:<br><br>Dear Janice,<br><br>I thought we sang this in the Order? My experience
of community singing gets mixed up between the Order and Songaia, but I
thought Fred, Stan Carol and I brought it to Songaia. Here are the
words. I am adding the first part that you hear with the link from
yesterday, it was not included when I found the verses and chorus on line this morning.<br><br>Open my eyes that I may see,<br>Glimpses of truth thou hast for me.<br>Open my eyes, illumine me,<br>Spirit divine.<br><br>Love of my life I am crying<br>

Why don't you sing this song<br> Then we can sing along<br> Then we can sing for a long, long time<br><br>What do you do for a living<br>Are you forgiving, giving shelter<br>Follow your heart, love will find you<br>
