Listen to the blind man’s story,

of how he came to see:

“There I was, sitting alone again

Without any friend.

On the street so hard,

In my world so very dark.

Till one day, a man came.

I did not even know his name.

He asked if I’d like to see,

Of course I would, so he healed me.

Some accused him of blasphemy, but I believed.

When I told him so,

He beckoned me to follow.”

Come – is all that was spoken.

Come – witness the heavens open.

Come – obey this command,

Soon you will understand.

Come – knock on the door.

Come -blessings are in store.

Come to me,

Miracles you will see.

 

Listen as Peter tells his story,

of a time in Galilee:

“One night my friend stayed while the rest pressed on,

And just before dawn,

Someone pointed out to sea,

Where a ghost walked gracefully.

But as I looked again,

It wasn’t a ghost, but my good friend.

And he spoke to us, ‘Be of good cheer,’

he comforted us all, ‘do not fear.’

My voice was soft, I wasn’t sure he’d hear,

I asked, ‘Lord, bid me to come near.’

He extended his hand,

And said a simple command:”

Come – is all that was spoken.

Come – witness the heavens open.

Come – obey this command,

soon you will understand.

Come – knock on the door.

Come – blessings are in store.

Come to me,

Miracles you will see.

“I walked boldly till I looked away to the sea.

As I sank into the cold water, I cried, “Lord, save me!”

I cannot tell you, there is no word to describe,

how warm his hand felt, as he pulled me to his side.

I looked at him, no more casting my eyes about.

‘O ye of little faith,’ he said, ‘why did you doubt?’

 

Listen to the last story,

Of anyone it can be:

“It always seems, I stand alone here,

Wishing a friend near.

But loneliness, my true friend,

has found me once again.

My heart feels like it will tear,

Till I finally kneel in prayer.

The answer comes, ‘Be of good cheer.

I the Lord am with you, do not fear.

I know your name, you are not alone.

Through this, faith’s seed is sown.

But first you must pass the test,

then your heart will know rest.’

Come – is all that is spoken.

Come – witness the heavens open.

Come – obey this command,

Soon you will understand

Where I come from.

Come – knock on the door.

Come – blessings are in store.

Come to me,

miracles you will see,

if you will but come.
