There Was A Time That I Went Blind

Rev. Gary Davis


There was a time that I went blind
There was a time that I went blind
It was the darkest day that I ever saw, it was the day that I went blind

Nobody cares for me
Nobody cares for me
'Cause I lost my sight and I have to be led, nobody cares for me

It's so hard to have to be blind, Lord
It's so hard to have to be blind, Lord
I'm away in the dark and got to feel my way, it's so hard to have to be blind

I moaned the day I went blind
I moaned the day I went blind
Oh, Lord, tell me how long. am I to be blind always?
