Light of the World: A Beacon of Hope and Truth

        •        Matthew 5:14-16: “You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden… let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.”

        •        Isaiah 60:1: “Arise, shine, for your light has come, and the glory of the Lord rises upon you.”

Devotional Thoughts:

“Light of the World” invites us to meditate deeply on the role of light in both the natural and spiritual realms. Jesus, the eternal Word, brought light into the darkness of our world, dispelling fear, sin, and death. As His followers, we are called to be reflections of His light, shining in our communities and beyond. This song is a prayer and a declaration for intercessors to rise up, stand firm in their faith, and illuminate the darkness with the truth of the Gospel.

Song Lyrics

Light of the World

Comp over C and F while narration

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
He was in the beginning with God.
All things came into being through Him, and apart from Him nothing came into being that has come into being.
In Him was life, and the life was the Light of men.
The Light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it.

Verse

Let your light shine, Let your light shine
In the darkest night
Let your love flow, Let your love flow
To the morning light

Pre-Chorus

Shine through every shadow
Break the chains of sorrow

Chorus

     For you are the light of the world
Bringing hope to every heart
For you are the light of the world
Shining bright, dispelling the dark

Bridge

In the house that once knew fear
Your light now shines so clear
Every mark and every scar
Healed by the Morning Star

Chorus

     For you are the light of the world
Bringing hope to every heart
For you are the light of the world
Shining bright, dispelling the dark

Outro

Let your light shine, Let your light shine
In the darkest night
Let your love flow, Let your love flow
To the morning light
