I wrote this song during ministry time at the Father's House in Oceanside, CA a few years ago...It was originally an instrumental and I started recording it that way...close to completion, I added the words...
This song was nominated for SOM for 12/08...Thanks.

OPEN UP THE HEAVENS ©
By Eric Welsch
Verse 1
I see my Lord
Painted in the morning sky
I see my Lord
Colored in the autumn leaves
But I want more
Chorus
So, Oh Lord Open Up the Heavens
Oh Lord Open Up the Heavens
Verse 2
I hear You Lord
Woven in the notes we sing
I hear You Lord
Riding on the air we breathe
But I want more
Verse 3
I see my Lord
Reflection in the children's eyes
I hear You Lord
Erupting from a newborn's cry
But I want more
Verse 4
I feel You Lord
Floating on the summer breeze
I feel You Lord
In the sanctuary on my knees
But I want more
