Crowning Day, No. 6 ‎#216

216. My Life, My Light, My Way

1 O Christ, my Lord, Thou art my life and light,
Thy word is truth, and in Thy presence bright,
No darkness can abide, no shade of night,
My life, my light, my way.

Refrain:
O life and light be with me on my way,
Apart from thee my soul must helpless stray,
Lead me, I pray Thee, to Thy perfect day,
My life, my light, my way.

2 Thou seest my weary heart, dear Saviour mine;
Thy rest and peace impart, and cause to shine
Thy light in ev’ry part with beams divine,
My life, my light, my way. [Refrain]

3 I hear Thy loving voice that bids me come,
Thou art my only choice, with Thee is home;
IN Thee will I rejoice, nor from Thee roam,
My life, my light, my way. [Refrain]

4 And when Thy face I see in mansions bright,
When faith is wondrously transformed to sight
I’ll still be praising Thee for life and light,
My life, my light, my way. [Refrain]
