1 I was wandering on in darkness and sin,
All weary with toiling alone,
But I opened my heart in pray’r unto Him,
When a stream of light came in.

Refrain:
O, a stream of light came in, came in,
O, a stream of light came in,
When Jesus came to me,
My heart was full and free,
A stream of light came in.

2 With a heart that was sore, with my head fallen low,
I came unto Christ with my sins,
And the Lord looked on me, cleans’d my heart, touch’d my brow,
When a stream of light came in. [Refrain]

3 O the peace, O the joy, in the look from His face,
When seeking I came unto Him,
What a shout, what a song when my heart found His grace,
When a stream of light came in. [Refrain]
