Lyrics

I Saw The Light

I saw the light, I saw the light

No more darkness, no more night

Now I'm so happy, no sorrow in sight

Praise the Lord, I saw the light

I wandered so aimless, life filled with sin

I wouldn't let my Dear Saviour in

Then Jesus came like a stranger in the night

Praise the Lord, I saw the light

I saw the light, I saw the light

No more darkness, no more night

Now I'm so happy, no sorrow in sight

Praise the Lord, I saw the light

Just like a blind man I wandered alone

Worries and fears, I claimed for my own

Then like the blind man that God gave back his sight

Praise the Lord, I saw the light

I saw the light, I saw the light

No more darkness, no more night

Now I'm so happy, no sorrow in sight

Praise the Lord, I saw the light

I was a fool to wander and stray

Straight is the gate and narrow's the way

Now I have traded the wrong for the right

Praise the Lord, I saw the light

I saw the light, I saw the light

No more darkness, no more night

Now I'm so happy, no sorrow in sight

Praise the Lord, I saw the light
