What means this throng a blind man saidA
Whilst begging by the highway sideB
Begging and blind and lacking breadA
His ears discern the living tideB
Jesus of Nazareth passeth byC
Was answered Had he heard arightB
Oh was the heavenly healer nighC
He who could give the blind their sightB
Jesus have mercy lo he criedB
Oh son of David pity meD
And when the jeering crowd derideB
His accents form a clearer pleaD
Jesus stood still A kindly voiceE
Bade him good cheer He calleth theeD
Thus must his lonely heart rejoiceE
He thinks of me yes even meD
Bartimaeus found the Living LightB
Who asked and granted his requestB
His blinded eyes received their sightB
With joy he followed with the restB
How oft when Jesus passes byC
The heart blind hear but don't perceiveF
Else how they would for mercy cryC
Ere Christ their Lord should take his leaveF
Like him of whom this story's toldB
They'd pray Lord Jesus pity meD
And find his power and love could foldB
Them here and in eternityD
