Once I was blind
myself, was all I could see
until the day, I heard Jesus
had died for me.
He opened my eyes,
made me look at my sin
and a spiritual revelation
took place within.
Once I was deaf,
I was unable to hear
until the day, I heard Jesus
wanted me to come near.
He spoke to me,
through the Good News
now I’m enlightened
my fears He’s diffused.
Once I was dumb,
I couldn’t understand
until the day, I heard Jesus
had for me eternity’s plan.
He showed me the path,
lit the way with His light
now I can see everything
through His glorious sight.
Once I was lame,
I just stumbled about
until the day, I heard Jesus
would clear up my doubt.
He took these feet,
made of mire and clay
showed me how to keep them
on the straight narrow way.
Once I was dead,
but now all I live for . . .
is the day with Jesus
I’ll be ~ forever more!

John 9:25
King James Version
“He answered and said, Whether he be a sinner or no,
I know not: one thing I know, that,
whereas I was blind, now I see.”
