As darkness awaits the dawn
Morning awaits creation’s song
And with the rising sun
Hope comes alive to carry on
The Light of Life is shining on
The dark of night can’t overcome
The Light of Life that burns so bright
Can take the wrong and make it right
Everyday people pray
They’ll find the strength to make it through
While there is One who waits
To fill their hearts with life anew
The Light of Life keeps shining on
The dark of night can’t overcome
The Light of Life that burns so bright
Can touch the blind and give them sight
(Repeat 5 times)
To free us from guilt and sin
God sent His Son for everyone
And all who believe in Him
Know that new life has just begun
The Light of Life is shining on
The dark of night can’t overcome
The Light of Life is Jesus Christ
Come lift your praise and worship Him
(Repeat 5 times)
