Mark 8:24: He looked up, and said, I see men as trees, &c

I Thy previous grace, which now I feel.
To me mine unbelief hath shown.
Hath made my darkness visible,
And joyful in its cure begun,
A glimmering light my spirit sees,
And men beholds as walking trees.
As walking in a shadow vain
A world of sinners I perceive;
Joy they pursue, and sorrow gain,
In ignorance like mine they live,
Till justice stern the axe apply.
And then they fade, they fall, they die
