Light of the World

Light of the World

"Light of the World
You stepped down into darkness
Opened my eyes
Let me see..." ---lyrics from "Here I am To Worship"

There I was
in a dark cave
Trembling in fears
I fell to my knees
And wept---
For I could not see

Then
From above
It came...

Like a waterfall
Pouring into the emptiness
Cleansing my body
With tender washes

Like a song
Breaking into the silence
Capturing my heart
With soothing melodies

Like a breeze
Flowing into the stillness
Renewing my soul
With gentle whispers

It was the Light
Penetrating through the darkness
Transforming me
Into a child of Light

There I was still
in the same cave
Yet I feared no darkness
For the Light was with me
I rejoiced in Its presence
And danced to Its glory---
For I could finally see.
