Doxologies: Let There Be Light

Julie StanosDoxologies, WorshipNovember 19, 2020 Leave a comment0

This is the message we have heard from Him and proclaim to you, that God is light, and in Him is no darkness at all. If we say we have fellowship with Him while we walk in darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth. But if we walk in the light, as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus His Son cleanses us from all sin. 1 John 1:5-7

What is truth? Where can we find it in a world overrun with media in every form, most of which is available 24/7? How do we quiet the chaos and navigate dark days?

In a world full of darkness and discord, God has provided a “true light” to guide our feet into the way of peace (John 1:9, Luke 1:79). There is such hope and joy to be found in the gift of Jesus as the Light of the World (John 8:12), the Light that can never be extinguished or overcome by darkness (John 1:5). He is the bright and morning star (Revelation 22:16), the life and light for all mankind (John 1:4). In our need for truth in dark days, may we look to Jesus, the true light, full of grace and truth (John 1:9-14).

It is my prayer that this song brings us to the altar in an intimate moment of prayer and communion with the one true God who commands all of creation with the sound of His voice. He is the God of revival who breathes life into dry bones, the Lord of Light in whom there is no darkness, and He is our Savior King whose grace is sufficient for every void within the brokenness of our humanity.

Let There Be Light

When You speak
Darkness has to bow
Confusion has its final hour
When You speak
Mountains rise and fall
It tears down every wall around me

When You speak
You breathe upon the dust
You come alive in us
When You speak
You silence every fear
We feel Your Spirit here around us

Let there be light
Let there be light
Until it fills up every space
Come and have Your way
Let there be light
Let there be light
Just one word and I am changed
Come and have Your way

Now You’re everything we seek
As deep cries out to deep
We will see God
Here Your glory on display
Jesus take Your place
We will see God

Let there be light
Let there be light
Until it fills up every space
Come and have Your way
Let there be light
Let there be light
Just one word and I am changed
Come and have Your way
