Lord, I was blind; I could not see

Lord, I was blind; I could not see In Thy marred visage any grace, But now the beauty of Thy face In radiant vision dawns on me. |

|
Lord, I was deaf; I could not hear The thrilling music of Thy voice; But now I hear Thee and rejoice, And all Thine uttered words are dear! |
3
|
Lord, I was dumb; I could not speak The grace and glory of Thy name; But now, as touched with living flame, My lips Thine eager praises wake. |
4
|
Lord, I was dead; I could not stir My lifeless soul to come to Thee; But now, since Thou hast quickened me, I rise from sin’s dark sepulcher. |

For Thou hast made the blind to see, The deaf to hear, the dumb to speak, The dead to live; and, lo, I break The chains of my captivity. |

last verse would speak better if, "lo, you've broke my chains,
I can do nothing, I cannot even break my chains."

For Thou hast made the blind to see,
The deaf to hear, the dumb to speak,
The dead to live; and, lo, I break
The chains of my captivity.
Thank You Lord for this complete salvation.
