Jesus, Light of the World (Uplifting Christian)

Verse 1

In Bethlehem, beneath the quiet sky,

A child was laid where humble cattle lie.

The promised dawn arrived in borrowed straw,

And mercy breathed beneath the ancient law.

Pre-Chorus

The weary world had waited through the night,

Then heaven placed its answer in our sight.

Chorus

Jesus, Light of the World,

Come and find us where we are.

Born to carry every burden,

Born to mend the broken heart.

From the manger to the cross,

Love would count the final cost.

Jesus, Light of the World,

Lead us home through grace.

Verse 2

The shepherds heard the song above the fields,

A peace no earthly kingdom ever yields.

The child who slept beneath a mother's care

Would bear our grief and meet us everywhere.

Pre-Chorus

The holy flame no darkness could undo

Was kindled in the hearts that welcomed You.

Chorus

Jesus, Light of the World,

Come and find us where we are.

Born to carry every burden,

Born to mend the broken heart.

From the manger to the cross,

Love would count the final cost.

Jesus, Light of the World,

Lead us home through grace.

Bridge

At Calvary, the veil was torn apart,

Redemption opened like a waking heart.

The grave could not contain the risen King;

The Light we found in Bethlehem still sings.

Final Chorus

Jesus, Light of the World,

Shine upon us through the years.

Turn our sorrow into worship,

Turn our mourning into praise.

From the manger to the cross,

You have found the ones who’re lost.

Jesus, Light of the World,

Keep us in Your grace.

Outro

In Bethlehem, the holy promise came;

Our hope, our peace, our everlasting name.
