  • Jesus the Light of the World #5143:17

Jesus the Light of the World 

Hark, the herald angels sing. 
Jesus, the light of the world.
Glory to the new-born King. 
Jesus, the light of the world.
Refrain:
We’ll... walk in the light, beautiful light. 
Come where the dewdrops of mercy shine bright. 
Oh, shine all around us by day and by night. 
Jesus, the light of the world.

Joyful, all ye nations, rise. 
Jesus, the light of the world. 
Join the triumph of the skies.
Jesus, the light of the world. (Refrain)

Christ, by highest heaven adored. 
Jesus, the light of the world.
Christ, the everlasting Lord,
Jesus, the light of the world. (Refrain)

John 16: 35-36
  35 Then Jesus said unto them, Yet a little while is the light with you. Walk while ye have the light, lest darkness come upon you: for he that walketh

in darkness knoweth not whither he goeth.
36 While ye have light, believe in the light, that ye may be the children of light. These things spake Jesus, and departed, and did hide himself from them.


Worship Suggestion:
The sound file is looped.
1.  Before the song begins, make remarks about the blessing we have received from Jesus. He brought light into this world for us. Without the light we have no way to have eternal life. During this season of the year we must remain steadfast and let our light shine so that others will see the light of Jesus Christ in us.
2. As the song plays the first time, read the scripture from the book of John 12: 35-36 and John 12: 44-47.  Let the song end.
3. As song plays the second time, sing Verses 1 - 3 together.
4. Prayer and Meditation.
