Lyrics
Light in the Lord
Verse 1
You were once darkness, born of the night
But now youre to live as children of light
The Lord shines through you so others will see
His brightness, His essence
His likeness; His presence,
You are light in the Lord
Chorus
Light in the Lord, light in the Lord
Jesus now calls you to brighten this world
He lightens your lives with heaven's light
For you are light in the Lord!
Verse 2
You were once blinded; as proud as could be!
Refusing Gods grace; not choosing His peace
Then you heard Jesus; His words touched your life
By seeking, receiving
Believing and seeing
You are light in the Lord
Chorus
Instrumental
Verse 3
You were once dead and from God you were far
But Love found your soul and entered your heart
The cross of Jesus has joined you to God
His sons and His daughters
Now God is your Father
You are light in the Lord
Chorus
