Lyrics Blind Bartimaeus - Bishops

Blind Bartimaeus

Well old blind bartamaues stood on the way Blind
Blind bartamaues stood on the way, well old blind bartamaues stood on the way
crying oh lord have mercy on me
In my gods bible the word proclaims that christ went healing the cripple and
the lame
he gave to the poor and needy bread, healing the sick and raising the dead,
then when he came to galilee he passed by a man that could not see,
well the man was blind he was blind from birth they tell me that his name was
blind bartamaues
when bartamaues heard that the lord was neigh he fell on his knees and began to
crying
oh thou man of galilee, crying great god almighty have mercy on me
crying oh lord, mary’s baby, oh lord, son of david, oh my lord, bleeding lamb…
, oh my lord
from in bethelehem
Well my lord he stoped and turned around and he saw blind bartamaues on the
ground and he touched his eyes with the palm of his hand,
Blind bartamaues saw like the natural man
He cried thank god, mary’s baby, thank god, son of david, thank my god,
bleeding lamb…,
thank my god from in betheleham
