“Mercy, O Thou Son Of David!”
Thus Blind Bartimaeus Prayed;
“Others By Thy Word Are Save D,
Now To Me Afford Thine Aid”;
Many For His Crying Chid Him,
But He Called The Louder Still;
Till The Gracious Savior Bid Him,
“Come, And Ask Me What You Will.”
Money Was Not What He Wanted,
Though By Begging Used To Live;
But He Asked, And Jesus Granted
Alms, Which None But He Could Give:
“Lord, Remove This Grievous Blindness,
Let My Eyes Behold The Day”;
Strait He Saw, And Won By Kindness,
Followed Jesus In The Way.
O! Methinks I Hear Him Praising,
Publishing To All Around,
“Friends, Is Not My Case Amazing?
What A Savior I Have Found:
O! That All The Blind But Knew Him,
And Would Be Advised By Me!
Surely, Would They Hasten To Him,
He Would Cause Them All To See.
