This is this Hill Country Rain Lily, Cooperia pedunculata Herbert (also called Zephyranthes drummondii), a member of the Lily Family (Liliaceae)
These little beauties pop up two or three days after a good soaking rain. The flowers only last a day or two, slowly beginning their opening at dusk and continuing throughout the night. They are fully open the next morning. Each unbranched stem holds a single fragrant white blossom.
