"Blind Bartimaeus.... casting way his garment, rose, and came to Jesus.... And Jesus said unto him, Go thy way, thy faith hath made thee whole. And immediately he received his sight, and followed Jesus in the way" (Mark 10:46-52).
How very much with Bartimaeus
We can each relate.
When Jesus gave our sight to us,
Was not that moment great?
And then we hear our Lord invite
This man to go his way.
Yet since he had obtained His sight,
Near Jesus He would stay.
"Go your way," our Savior said,
Your faith has made you whole."
But where then should we go instead,
To satisfy our soul?
What a lesson for the heart,
To follow Christ our Lord!
Who would bid us to depart
From Christ our soul's Reward?
