One who saw it told it well,
Let its beacon shine,
Dared to spread the vital Word,
Preaching "not my will, but thine."
Had he not proved what he taught,
Walked with only learned men,
Passing by the maimed, the blind,
Cleansing not the lepers ten,
Sent away the faint of heart,
Then this present world would not
Know the Comforter is here,
"Former things of old" forgot.
Peace he brought, and gave to these
Lowly folk and fishermen
Parables, with common signs,
Healing men today as then.
