Now I Can See

 

The neighbors saw the beggar man and knew that he was blind.

The man they saw had eyes that worked like every other kind.

“Is this the same man? He can see! It can’t be him,” they said.

“Yes it is me. I am the same.” is what the beggar said.

 

They knew that he was born that way and he was not to blame.

Though he was just a beggar man he now was not the same.

“Where is this man who healed your eyes?” is what the others said.

Our friend stood straight up, looked around and this is what he said.

 

“Now I can see. Now I can see.

All that I know is once I was blind but now I can see.

Between you and me, this Teacher must be

Sent from above to take my heart and from sin be set free.”

 

They took him to some men that kept and studied holy law.

They just did not believe that he had eyes that never saw.

“A man named Jesus put some mud upon my eyes, and said,

‘Go to the pool and wash your eyes.’” And that is what I did.

 

“Now I can see. Now I can see.

All that I know is once I was blind but now I can see.

Between you and me, this Teacher must be

Sent from above to take my heart and from sin be set free.”

 

The men demanded that he tell, “Who is this Jesus man?”

“A prophet is what Jesus is, it seems from where I stand.”

A second time they called me back. “Tell us the truth!” they said.

“I told you once. Did you not hear?” is what the beggar said.

 

“Now I can see. Now I can see.

All that I know is once I was blind but now I can see.

Between you and me, this Teacher must be

Sent from above to take my heart and from sin be set free.”

Didymus

 

Once lived a man who had to have evidence.

Once lived a man who believed in what he could see.

If there was any doubt, he refused to believe.

Didymus said that what’s real can be verified.

All that’s real is smelled, felt, heard, tasted, or seen.

If any doubt remained, he refused to believe.

 

Didymus would stand his ground if the proper proof wasn’t found.

He would come to the conclusion that it just could not be…

“Until I see, I’ll not believe.” ‘til I feel and I see, I’ll not believe.

 

Friends tried to tell him that Jesus was now alive.

Didymus heard that they’d seen Him with their own eyes.

He didn’t see for himself. He refused to believe.

Friends told him they’d seen the nail prints in His hands.

Didymus heard that they’d seen the wound in His side.

He didn’t touch for himself. He refused to believe.

 

Didymus would stand his ground if the proper proof wasn’t found.

He would come to the conclusion that it just could not be…

“Until I see, I’ll not believe.” ‘til I feel and I see, I’ll not believe.

 

Then with his friends, all closed up inside a room.

There all together they saw that Jesus was there.

Jesus said, “Peace be with you.” Didymus could believe.

Jesus said, “Don’t be unbelieving anymore.

Come here and put your hand on my hands and my side.”

Didymus said, “My Lord and my God.” He truly believed.

 

Maybe proof can’t be found. Maybe He can’t be seen around.

It is faith that makes you know Him. You don’t have to see.

Blessed are they who do not see…

“Blessed are they who do not see and yet believe.”
