You Are The Light
Dark and cheerless is the morn
Without Your hand to comfort me
Joy-less is the day’s return
‘Til Your mercy’s beams I see
‘Til they inward light impart,
Glad my eyes and warm my heart
Christ, whose glory fills the skies,
You are the true, the only Light
Sun of Righteousness, arise,
Triumph over shades of night
You are the Light, You are the Light
Visit, then, this soul of mine,
Pierce the gloom of sin and grief
Fill me, Radiancy Di-vine,
Scatter all my unbelief
More and more Yourself display,
Shining to the perfect day
Christ, whose glory fills the skies,
You are the true, the only Light
Sun of Righteousness, arise,
Triumph over shades of night
You are the Light, You are the Light
Dayspring from on high, be near
Daystar, in my heart appear.
Written by Matthew S. Smith and Jeff Pardo
