The blind men to Jesus
cried out by the way,
Beseeching in darkness for light;
“Oh help, Son of David,
have mercy, we pray,
And grant us the blessing of sight.”
“Believe ye that I am able,
able to do this?
According unto your faith
be it unto you.”
O Christian, so weary
of sorrow and sin,
Your darkness will vanish away;
His light like the glory
of noontide, shine in—
To you He is saying today,
“Believe ye that I am able,
able to do this?
According unto your faith
be it unto you.”
Oh wand’rer if you would
a blessing receive,
He’s passing, oh do not delay;
But answer Him quickly,
“Yea, Lord, I believe,”
To you He is saying today,
“Believe ye that I am able,
able to do this?
According unto your faith
be it unto you.”
The same Son of David
is healing today,
All those who upon Him call;
Yes, Jesus of Nazareth
is passing this way,
He’s saying to us, one and all,
“Believe ye that I am able,
able to do this?
According unto your faith
be it unto you.”
