God is Light

The thing which we have heard from old,

And seen, and held in hand,

Of that sure Word of Life foretold

That evermore shall stand:

That Word declare we unto you,

And manifest it be;

So with the Godhead we commune

Together joyfully.

The message is that God is Light;

In Him no darkness dwells.

If we are walking in His sight,

He shades of night dispels.

So if in darkness we are yet,

The truth we do not tell

To say the Father we have met

And in the Son do dwell.

The blood of Jesus Christ the Son

All sin will cleanse away,

As we’ve been promised, everyone,

When to the Lord we pray;

And saying not, “We have no sin,”

Ourselves thus to deceive,

But telling all our fault to Him,

To trust Him and believe.
