Gift #1194: Light of the World

Each Christmas, I like to post a song which has personal meaning for me during the Advent season. My church did I a series leading up to Christmas on Jesus as the light of the World. One of the songs we sang through Advent ministered deeply to my heart and I wanted to share it with you this year.

Light of the World by We the Kingdom

Light of the world, treasure of Heaven
Brilliant like the stars, in the wintery sky
Joy of the Father, reach through the darkness
Shine across the earth, send the shadows to flight
Light of the world, from the beginning
The tragedies of time, were no match for Your love
From great heights of glory, You saw my story
God, You entered in, and became one of us

Sing hallelujah, sing hallelujah
Sing hallelujah for the things He has done
Come and adore Him, bow down before Him
Sing hallelujah to the light of the world

Light of the world, crown in a manger
Born for the Cross, to suffer, to save
High King of Heaven, death is the poorer
We are the richer, by the price that He paid, ohh

Sing hallelujah, sing hallelujah
Sing hallelujah for the things He has done
Come and adore Him, bow down before Him
Sing hallelujah to the light of the world
You’re the light of the world
Light up the dark

Light of the world, soon will be coming
With fire in His eyes, He will ransom His own
Through clouds He will lead us, straight into glory
And there He shall reign, forevermore
Oh, forevermore

Sing hallelujah, sing hallelujah
Sing hallelujah for the things He has done
Come and adore Him, bow down before Him
Sing hallelujah to the light of the world
The light of the world

I hope in whatever situation you find yourself today, that these words whisper hope into your heart. The message of Christmas is that we are not alone, left in the dark. God came for us, put on flesh, and lived the life of a perfect man, giving that life and righteousness to everyone who looks to Him in faith. He is with us, He is the Light, and He loves us now and forever.

Blessings to you,

Sarah
