"One thing I know, that, whereas I was blind, now I see.... Why herein is a marvelous thing, that ye know not from whence He is, and yet He hath opened mine eyes" (John 9:25,30).
There was a man who once was blind
Whom Jesus made to see.
How marvelous it was to find
His sight by God's decree!
Yet still more marvelous that day
Than his new sight received,
Was stubborn blindness on display
In those by choice deceived.
How could it be they did not know
That God was in their midst?
How could they miss what God would show?
How could they still resist?
We need not look to days of old
For blindness of this kind.
In this our day we still behold
This madness of the mind.
