lyrics

In the tender compassion of our God, a new dawn has broken upon us;
To shine on those who dwell in darkness, and to guide our feet along the ways of peace.

And the light shine on in the darkness and the darkness has never overcome it;
And the light shine on in the darkness and the darkness will never overcome.

He was in the world, and the world was made through Him; yet those living then knew him not.
To his own He came, His own rejected Him; but to those who believe in Him,
He has given the power to be children of our God. (Refrain)

Jesus is the Light of the world shining in the face of darkness;
Those who walk in the ways of the Lord have the Light of Life. (Refrain)

So we, too, are lights of the world shining in the face of darkness;
So all can see in the justice of our lives God’s prophetic Word. (Refrain)
