The Blind Man is King
In the dark
the blind man is king.
He finds a clear way
around everything
.
You and I
may stumble and fall.
To feel our own way
we reach for a wall.

Without light,
we’re helpless and blind.
He laughs and he says,
“We’re now of a kind.”

Truth be told,
we all may be blind.
There are many things
we never can find.

Blind or not,
we all have a curse.
The blind man knows his;
yours may be worse.

Dark or light,
we stumble and fall.
We hope there is help
when we make our call.

Call for God,
if that is your choice.
I doubt He will hear
just one sinner’s voice.

Look inside,
deep, deep in your heart.
There you’ll find strength.
It’s there you must start.

Stand up tall
and act like a man.
It’s all you can do.
All anyone can.
