Many years he walked
in darkness
As he groped
along the streets
With his hand stretched out
for pennies
Or for just a bite to eat
It's a story of a blind man
who met Jesus on his way
And with the master's touch
the man looked up
As the scoffers heard him say
Somebody touched me
Somebody touched me
I was blind but praise his name
I now can see
I was in darkness
when Jesus found me
But since he touched me
I now am free
One day he touched
the crippled man
And he made him walk again
And the master
saw with pleasure
He had labored not in vain
Like the story of
that crippled man
I once was bound by sin
But since the master came
Oh praise his name
Thank God I now can say
Somebody touched me
Somebody touched me
I was blind but praise his name
I now can see
I was in darkness
when Jesus found me
But since he touched me
I now am free
Somebody touched me
Somebody touched me
I was blind but praise his name
I now can see
I was in darkness
when Jesus found me
But since he touched me
I now am free
I was in darkness
when Jesus found me
But since he touched me
I now am free
Thank God I'm free
