The Lord's Light Within

The Lord's Light Within




Lord we reflect with thankful hearts


On the wonder of your birth


The love you expressed when you left


Your glory to come to earth



For your life was like a beacon, Lord


Shining brightly in the night


Filling the world with the radiance of


The Father’s glorious light



And we, too, long to have inside


Your light for others to see


The beautiful reflection of your grace


And the wonder of your majesty



For as your life indwells our hearts


We can shine wherever we are


And arise to take hold of each new day


With your light ablaze in our hearts



So rekindle the flame within us Lord


So it will not flicker nor dim


Ignite us with the light of your love


So you will shine brightly within
