Come See The Light

There is a light of which they speak

Through space and time they’ve continued to seek

And unlike most of the world’s treasures

Man can never deplete its pleasures

There’s more than enough for all to share

Just waiting for you to see what’s there

Soft and gentle on your face

The light envelops like a warm embrace

Though some fear what the light may reveal

They come to realize that the light does heal

It shines into our dark places

And breathes new life into these spaces

Illuminating talents, gifts, and dreams

Mending hearts and repairing seams

So who, you ask, is this light

This remedy for human plight

With one experience you’ll never be the same

For the light is Jesus; that is his name

And all he encounters are forever changed

Their lives now beautifully rearranged

Such a brilliant light that none can compare

Pure, holy, exquisite, and rare

So with this light what are you to do

Here is its simple invitation to you

Let it shine into your heart

And you will feel the transformation start

Soon all those around will know

For in you they’ll now see this heavenly glow

With just a glimpse you’ll learn there’s more

This newfound light will give you wings to soar

Darkness hid what we were meant to be

But the light gives us new eyes to see

So come see the light that beckons so

And in its beams, your hope will grow
