579. The blind man sat by the road and he cried

1 The blind man sat by the road and he cried;
the blind man sat by the road and he cried;
the blind man sat by the road and he cried
O show me the way,
show me the way,
show me the way,
the way to go home.

2 The crippled man sat by the road and he cried;
the crippled man sat by the road and he cried;
the crippled man sat by the road and he cried
O show me the way,
show me the way,
show me the way,
the way to go home.

3 We all sat by the road and we cried;
we all sat by the road and we cried;
we all sat by the road and we cried
O show us the way,
show us the way,
show us the way,
the way to go home.

4 Jesus stood by the road and he cried;
Jesus stood by the road and he cried;
Jesus stood by the road and he cried
O, I am the way.
I am the truth,
I am the life,
the way to go home.

5 Jesus -
Jesus -
Jesus-
O, you are the way,
you are the truth,
you are the life,
the way to go home.
Jesus!
