The veil of sin lay stretched before me;

The night was deep and dark and long…

But then the Light of mercy found me-

No longer blind…on my way home!

The Light broke forth upon the darkness,

It lit my way to paths unseen.

It showed the road to Life Eternal…

Dispelled my doubts and washed me clean!

This glorious Light-His name is Jesus!

He shines His love on folks like me…

His grace and mercy, it surrounds me-

He came to die so I’d be free.

Oh glorious Light of His salvation!

No more in darkness will I be…

His love and mercy is a beacon-

No longer blind…now I can see!
