Light

Into dense darkness Thick quiet nothingness Almighty God spoke light Perhaps angels trumpeted praises with singing Perhaps a profound silence revered the aura Perhaps it was then the radiant vision was born The Light of the World Sent into the darkness of men's hearts The Word becoming flesh Flesh crucified So into a dark world Almighty God sent a great gleaming star Beckoning men of open hearts to see What love lay upon the straw Promise faithfully fulfilled Life freely given Nights are still dark Stars still faithfully glisten Guiding the hearts of shepherds and kings Into dense darkness Thick with the worldly wise and the nothingness of self-conceit Almighty God has sent The Light of the World Oh come let us worship Him Christ the Lord
