Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Oh, Jesus Son of God
So full of grace and truth
The Father's saving word
So wonderful are You
[Verse 2]
The angels longed to see
And prophets searched to find
The glory we have seen revealed
[Verse 3]
You shone upon the earth
But who will understand?
You came unto Your own
But who will recognize?
[Verse 4]
Your birth was prophesied
For You were the Messiah
Who came and walked upon the earth
Your glory, we have seen
The one and only King
And now You're living in our hearts
[Verse 5]
Light of the world, light of the world
Light of the world, You shine upon us
Light of the world, light of the world
Light of the world, You shine upon us
[Verse 6]
In You, all things were made
And nothing without You
In heaven and on earth
All things are held in You
[Verse 7]
And yet, You became flesh
Living as one of us
Under the shadow of the cross
Where through the blood You shed
You have made peace again
Peace for the world that God so loves, yeah
[Verse 8]
Light of the world, light of the world
Light of the world, You shine upon us
Light of the world, light of the world
Light of the world, You shine upon us
So full of grace and truth
[Verse 9]
Light of the world, light of the world
Light of the world, You shine upon us
So wonderful are You
Light of the world, light of the world
Light of the world, You shine upon us
[Verse 10]
And yet, You became flesh
Living as one of us
Under the shadow of the cross
Where through the blood You shed
You have made peace again
Peace for the world that God so loves
[Verse 11]
Light of the world, light of the world
Light of the world, You shine upon us
Light of the world, light of the world
Light of the world, You shine upon us
Your glory shines around
[Verse 12]
Light of the world, light of the world
Light of the world, You shine upon us
You shine, oh, You shine
Light of the world, light of the world
Light of the world, You shine upon us
You shine, oh You shine
[Verse 13]
Light of the world, light of the world
Light of the world, You shine upon us
