The  light of the world made history begin,
 Spoke time  into being  caused planets  to spin,
 Flung galaxies  wide through infinite space,
To  sing of his splendour  and fathomless grace
Come, come daughters  and sons,
Look  to the light  of the world,
Sing, sing praises  to Him,
Simply believe,
You  will receive,
Mercy  and love  without measure
The  light of the world preached justice  for all,
 Defying  the proud  and defending  the poor,
 Then humbled  himself to death  on a cross,
 To crush  the oppressor  and rescue  the lost
Come, come daughters  and sons,
Look  to the light  of the world,
Sing, sing praises  to Him,
Simply believe,
You  will receive,
Mercy  and love  without measure
The  light of the world still shines  on the Earth,
 With gifts  of forgiveness  the hope  of new birth,
 So open  your hearts don’t hide  in the night,
 Step out  of the darkness  and into  His light
Come, come daughters  and sons,
Look  to the light  of the world,
Sing, sing praises  to him,
Simply believe,
You  will receive,
Mercy  and love  without measure
Mercy  and love  without measure
