107. Jesus the Light of the World

1 Lo, in the light I am walking,
Jesus the light of the world,
Brighter than noontide His glory,
Jesus the light of the world.
Close to His bosom He holds me,
In His warm love He enfolds me,
Jesus the light, Jesus the light,
Jesus the light of the world.

2 Like a green bay tree I flourish,
Jesus the light of the world,
He all my being doth nourish,
Jesus the light of the world.
Into my heart’s deep recesses,
Shines He, and richly He blesses,
Jesus the light, Jesus the light,
Jesus the light of the world.

3 Lo, in the light I am walking,
Jesus the light of the world,
Darkness is not where He dwelleth,
Jesus the light of the world.
Ever He goeth before me,
Guiding me onward to glory,
Jesus the light, Jesus the light,
Jesus the light of the world.
