Light of the Lord Jesus

~*~

(Send as an Inspirational Christian Lighthouse e-card!)

Sunlight streaming

Brilliant and warm

Dancing through trees

While shadows do form

 

Light and shadow

Darkness and day

Both contrast and divide

In a powerful way

 

For God is Light

He is radiant and pure

In His brilliant Truth

We can walk secure

 

In His Light may we be

In His Truth remain

In the warmth of Love

Living never in vain

 

Let the Son Light warm

Let it pour in your heart

Let its brilliance embrace

That from God you never part

 

You may walk in valleys

Of shadows of death

You will fear no evil

For Light sustains breath

 

As shadows are nothing

Forms without light

Shapes without substance

Dark as the night

 

Fear not then the shadows

Cower not in the trial

Cringe not in the darkness

Light remains all the while

 

For if Christ is within you

Light lives in your soul

It brings you Life eternal

It uplifts and makes whole

 

Celebrate then, Christian

Rejoice in the glorious Light

As the sun rises in the east

Praise God for the sight

 

See His Message in the beams

See His Word in the sunrays

See His Gospel in the sun

As its light speaks of His Ways

 

And let the Son Light warm

Let it pour in your heart

Let its brilliance embrace

That from God you never part
