Since I met Him

What if this was the first sight your eyes ever beheld?
Enjoy the words of this song spoken by the man who once was blind.
I get goose bumps every time I hear this song.
Oh, how I can relate!

Since I Met him

by Don Fransisco

Now it’s hard to describe what my life used to be
To someone who’s always been able to see
You know I wasn’t unhappy or bitter that way
But everything’s changed since I met him that day

I was down by the corner just passing the time
Sitting in the sunlight and feeling it shine
When the sounds of a crowd began to grow in my ear
So I waited and I listened as I heard them draw near

Then a man stepped up to me and he spat on the ground
He put the mud on my eyes and then smeared it around
Sent me off to Siloam to wash off the clay
And I opened my eyes and I looked at the day!!

And I have no idea how he did it.
I just know what happened to me
Yesterday I was in darkness
But since I met him I can see

When the Pharisees heard it they put me on trial
Even called in my parents and grilled them a while
And when at the end I defended the man
Who had opened my eyes all the trouble began

I said ever since the beginning of time
No one’s opened the eyes of someone born blind
This man’s sent from God it just can’t be denied
And they Cursed me and grabbed me and threw me outside

I really don’t know how he found me
I just know he was talkin’ to me
It was easy to tell by the sound of his voice
He was the reason I see

And as soon as he spoke to me I couldn’t hide
The emotion that welled up from deep down inside
And combined with the dreams that He’d made to come true
To kneel there and worship was all I could do!!

And I called Him my Lord and Messiah
For everything He’d done for me
Yesterday I was in darkness
But since I met Him I can see!

And I called Him my Lord and my savior
For everything He’d done for me
Yesterday I was in darkness
But Since I met Him
Since I met Him
Since I met Him I can see!!

Since I met Him- Messiah
Since I met Him- Messiah
Since I met Him I can see!!
