The Gift of Sight
The gift of sight I have received
the difference hard to believe
only perfect sight was conceived
now that it's here I'm so relieved
it's been one year since I could see
anything in one eye with clarity
everything was opaque and shadows
couldn't distinguish hand from elbow
effectively blind in one eye
I was afraid someone could die
cause driving at night was scary
at times it got kind of hairy
I prayed for one of the best
a surgeon above all the rest
GOD opened the doors for me
surgeons top ten in our country
surgery jitters fit to be tied
even though the LORD was at my side
many people were praying for me
helped relieve my anxiety
patients waited nervous restless
awakened reaction speechless
a blessed surgeon his hands were skilled
sight adroitly given patients thrilled
through years of schooled dedication
long nights spent in concentration
skills acquired through years of practice
he's been able to cure blindness
in all of his patient's reactions
he's awarded satisfaction
GOD'S surgeon he is called to be
to heal the blind and help them see
