For mysteries did hide from me

As blind I was before

But then reborn that I might see

And faith— they then restore

 

Tears did drench mine eyes

Baptized through my pain

Yet— it’s then I could realize

The strength I did contain

 

Weakness sought to reign

Until I could start to see

That I just might sustain

With you that lives within me

 

My eyes began to wander

Searching for a key

Wisdom was my armor

That second sight gave to me

 

Strength was found within the bonds

Of wisdom that I’ve gained

Knowledge now responds

As weakness is restrained

 

For all I seem to now know

What I comprehend

Is that what’s now below

Is darkness that I tread

 

For with thine light I can see

Exactly what you intend

And anything that’s now before me

Is what I did portend

 

For strength and wisdom do now guide

The steps I seek to take

As mysteries now do not hide

But instead are wide awake
