This hymn that we sing at our church was running through my mind this morning from the first moment I woke up.

Here is the melody played on a home organ by a church organist. It’s a wonderful hymn. The world desperately needs the light of Christ, and how will that shine if not through us?

I want to walk as a child of the Light
I want to follow Jesus
God set the stars To give light to the world
The Star of my life is Jesus.

Chorus:

In Him there is no darkness at all
The night and the day are both alike
The lamb is the Light of the city of God
Shine in my heart Lord Jesus.

I want to see the Brightness of God
I want to look at Jesus
Clear Son of righteousness shine on my path
And show me the way to the Father.

Chorus

I’m looking for the coming of Christ
I want to be with Jesus
When we have run, with patience, the race
We shall know the joy of Jesus.
