Bartimeu

How many years waiting for something to change
How much time wishing to see the sun rise
How many days of lament, suffering, and pain
How many hours of bitterness and disappointment

How many tears fell with no reason to live
How much loneliness in darkness not knowing what to do
How much life in the gutter trying to survive
How many dreams and impossible plans for you

But when He arrives, He changes the game
Wherever He goes, a huge crowd follows
And many miracles happen by His power
If you cry out to Him, He'll surely respond

Just like the blind man Bartimeus
Not afraid, he raised his voice
He said: Jesus, son of David
Have mercy on me

Insisting even louder, he cried out
In an instant, Jesus stopped right there
For the Master was calling him
He threw off his cloak and went

Face to face, before the Lord
All this because he had faith
Bartimeus was blind, but he could see
For he cried out, and then Jesus stopped

But when He arrives, He changes the game
Wherever He goes, a huge crowd follows
And many miracles happen by His power
If you cry out to Him, He'll surely respond

Just like the blind man Bartimeus
Not afraid, he raised his voice
He said: Jesus, son of David
Have mercy on me

Insisting even louder, he cried out
In an instant, Jesus stopped right there
For the Master was calling him
He threw off his cloak and went

Face to face, before the Lord
All this because he had faith
Bartimeus was blind, but he could see
For he cried out, and then Jesus stopped
