The Lord of Glory, the Light of Earth - Hymn with Lyrics

1. The Lord of Glory, the Light of Earth,

When earth lay captive to night.
And sin had robbed her of truth and worth,
Shined forth, and all things were bright!
Glory! glory and praise! Lord of Glory always!
In my heart has His light radiantly shone.
Lord of Glory always! Glory! glory and praise!
Light of all the world is Jesus, Jesus, alone!

2. Who hear and believe the Master's word
Know joy of heart all the way.
Who do God's commands, the light of God
Shall light their brightening day.
Glory! glory and praise! Lord of Glory always!
In my heart has His light radiantly shone.
Lord of Glory always! Glory! glory and praise!
Light of all the world is Jesus, Jesus, alone!

3. Who live in the dark of sin are blind,
Their world confusion and fear.
Whose guilt has been cleansed by Jesus find
Eyes bright and vision made clear.
Glory! glory and praise! Lord of Glory always!
In my heart has His light radiantly shone.
Lord of Glory always! Glory! glory and praise!
Light of all the world is Jesus, Jesus, alone!
