THE MIRACLE MAN

The Miracle Man
There was a man that was known for the miracles he performed.
Millions came to see him, they came from wide and from far.

He gave sight to the blind, hearing to the deaf, cured the lame, healed the sick, and raised the dead.
"But, what is more important" he said.
"To give sight to the blind, or to give wisdom instead?"

"What does it matter what a man can see, if he knows not the difference between wrong and right?"
"What does it profit a man what he hears, if he hates many things in his life?"
"Is it so important to walk tall on two legs, if you are not known to be upright?"
"Where is the value in being free from disease, when your true illness is hidden just out of sight?"

The crowd screamed, "This is not why we came here, to philosophise!" "We are here for a miracle, so do one right here, right now, before our very eyes!"

The man's head sank, they had not understood.
The miracles they wanted could never fix them and never would.

With new ears they might hear, but they would never understand.
With new eyes they might see, but forever miss God's plan.

They wanted assurance, they wanted cheers and praise.
They wanted healing and flowery words, they wanted a parade.

But the man had not come to do great tricks.
He had come to tell the truth, not to heal the literally sick.

He stood before them and made his intensions clear.
Knowing his words would be lost on some, but that others would draw near.

"I have given SIGHT to those who could NOT SEE that there is more to life than what they live."
"I have given HEARING to those that could not HEAR the great truth that I give."

"I've healed the sick hearts of those who hate, worry, and fear."
"I've straightened the walk of those who were lost and made their conscience clear."

"I'm not a magician, a wizard, or your puppet fool.
I have come to tell you only the truth. Not to make you think that I am cool.

You are lost in a world filled with smoke and mirrors.
But if you take a look again and try to find the truth of these rumors.

"You will see the only man that I have ever raised from the dead, Is one who did not believe he was the child of God, but believed he was a mere mortal instead."
