Light of the World
Let your light so shine before men
That they revere your Father in heaven
And praise Him (praise Him)
For your good deeds. repeat
A light on a hilltop can’t be hidden
Nor do we put lamps under a bowl
Instead we put it on its stand
Giving light for all to see
For you are the light of the world.
Whoever loves his brother lives in the light
There’s nothing in him to make him stumble
Gods love in him is made complete. repeat
God is light in Him’s no darkness – at all
This is the message heard and declared
If we truly walk in the light
As He is in the light
The blood of Jesus keeps us clean.
