I'm no Longer Blind (Quatern Poetry)



Dear Lord, please have mercy on me,
You're always near my painful soul,
You are my focus and my goal,
In the falling rain, I'm your tree.

Help me, because I'm a sinner.
Dear Lord, please have mercy on me.
'Cause I'm Your humble devotee,
Asking Christ to come for dinner.

Thou shed light on this pain of mine.
I'm no longer blind I can see.
Dear Lord, please have mercy on me.
Your words through me will always shine.

Save me by Your grace, set me free.
Keep my way, truth and life in Christ.
And so I'll know that Thou exist.
Dear Lord, please have mercy on me.
