Through The Eyes Of A Blind Man

I'd've always thought I'd see a lotta thoughtful things in life

That was more beautiful than anything I'd ever seen

One morning I was standing on a street corner waitin' for a bus

When I heard the tap of a cane

The he walked up beside me lookin' straight ahead through dark glasses

And his Bible of braille in his hands

He said good morning sir in a voice that was soft and kind

It sorta startled me for a moment for I had no idea that he knew I was there

For I hadn't made a sound

Then I spoke to him and started conversation I said are you waitin' for a bus

He said yes sir I'm goin' out to the college campus to give a lecture on Jesus

Would you like to go with me he said with the smile you might enjoy yourself

Although I'm not the world's greatest speaker

My subject is of a man that's so different from any moments

I guess it was curiosity that caused me to go or maybe this strange look about him

But in a short time I found myself on a college campus

Seated with the students at the jam

The room was as still as inside of a tomb

As he walked toward the podium in the middle of the room

Then he opened his Bible and put his hands on a braille

As though he was touching the hands of God

And said God help these people to see what I have seen

Show 'em the right path to trod

Let 'em look to my eyes and see the love of Jesus for them

And those that were there at the campus that morning
