Bartimaeus - What Do You Seek?

Bartimaeus - sitting blindly by the side of the road,
Listening to life pass by - but you were alert,
You held Hope alive in your heart.
Eager Faith, biding its time, waiting expectantly.

Then the day came - Jesus is passing by,
Your heart stirs, you cry out;
“Jesus, Have pity on me!”
This is the day, no one will silence you.
Hope born through years of darkness.
Faith ready to be revealed –
“Jesus, Have pity on me!”

Jesus calls you to Him –
You jump up eagerly, leaving all behind
You draw near, still in darkness but you feel His presence. 

He asks you; “What do you Seek?”
The cry and longing of many years comes out;
“Lord. I want to see.”

“Be opened”
And behold - my eyes are opened
They behold a face - smiling, laughing, joyful
Eyes sparkling with Love & Joy

Jesus - Light, Radiance
As I look around, all I see is bathed in the light and
radiance Flowing from Jesus’ eyes and Countenance

Sight:
Behold, All is new - colors, trees dancing for joy, clouds, water
I have heard the wind - but now I see its effect - Wow!
I have felt the Sun - but now I see its splendor and dancing shadows

Jesus laughs with Joy.

I follow Him.
