Legal Question in Family Law in Texas

If an individual want to address the Court regarding a parental rights termination case, after discovering withheld evidence that would have altered the decision, what motion should I proceed with? The Court filed the Final Order almost 3 years ago; the case was an agreed termination suit brought on by the State and the children's paternal Grandparents. I will be going forward Pro Per and have already established indigence. Some advise filing a Motion To Vacate Original Order, while others suggest a Motion To Reconsider. Considering the great importance of this case I obviously would like to request the opinion of Great Minds!
