Dear Sally F,
Yes. The song reminds us that when we are seeking God it isn't often with our eyes that we see Him, but it is with the opening of our hearts to Him.
God tells us over and over in His word that He is not a God who will hide from His people. This is why we have the Holy Spirit abiding inside of us, and when Jesus was born he was named Immanuel which means God is with us. God's intention and heart is to always be near us. But Jesus will never force His way into our lives- we have to open our hearts and invite Him as Revelation 3:20 paints the picture of.
May God open the eyes of your heart that you may see Him high and lifted up.
God Bless. Hope that helps. Kindly,
Nickster

This is what the One True God promises in all the Holy Books:
"All the prophets have striven to make love manifest in the hearts of men. His Holiness Jesus Christ sought to create this love in the hearts. He suffered all difficulties and ordeals that perchance the human heart might become the fountain-source of love. Therefore we must strive with all our heart and soul that this love may take possession of us so that all humanity whether it be in the east or in the west may be connected through the bond of this divine affection; for we are all the waves of one sea; we have come into being through the same bestowal and are recipients from the same center. The lights of earth are all acceptable, but the center of effulgence is the sun and we must direct our gaze to the sun. God is the supreme center. The more we turn toward this center of light, the greater will be our capacity."
(Abdu'l-Baha, Baha'i World Faith - Abdu'l-Baha Section, p. 218)

Yes God will open the eyes of your heart if God has the willingness to do that for you.

yes, just pray to him for this without ceasing until its fulfillment. Luke 18:1-8 "The widow and the unjust judge"; Luke 11:1-13 "The importunate prayer request" Trouble him...He wants to give you your hearts desire. Persistent continuous prayer--Add fasting with your prayer also.Desire this with an burning white heat pulsating obssession--seeing believing that you already have this in your possession. Mk 11:21-26

No, for God is not looking to change people's hearts, but he is looking for people whose heart is desiring truth and something more than what is now being offered. You are the one who opens your heart to God. If you are waiting for him to do it for you, than you're going to be left wanting.

No, but if you do it yourself you can give God the credit later. I hear that's how he works anyway.

"if you let him" translates to "you have to do it yourself and pretend someone else is doing it."
