Light: This is Christmas

Formless darkness
Empty void
And God said, “Let there be
LIGHT”

Gracious Father
Endless love
Countenance brimming with
LIGHT
Chosen enslaved
Shadowed land
Upon them shines a great
LIGHT

Only Savior
Tiny babe
The world receiving its
LIGHT
Heaven’s answer
Promised Son
The Word made flesh bringing
LIGHT

Selfish, blinded
blackest heart,
Truth pierces through giving
LIGHT
Freely offered
Gift of sight
Jesus the source of all
LIGHT
Glaring purpose
Perfect peace
My eyes are alive with
LIGHT

Painful chaos
Broken world
What better place for a
LIGHT?
Hopeless hurting
Dark despair
Desperate, they’re searching for
LIGHT
Countless hurting
Dying now
How can I cover the
LIGHT?

This is Christmas
Christ revealed
I am a mirror for
LIGHT
Gleaming lampstand
Hope unveiled
Beacon of love, beaming
LIGHT

Morning Star
Coming soon
Carry the message of
LIGHT
Life reflected
Dusk dispelled
Rise up and stand in the
LIGHT!
