Since I Met Him

Lyrics

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 awhile 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 talking 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 call Him my Lord and my Savior For everything He's 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
