Let There Be Light
Let there be light, let there be understanding,
Let all the nations gather, let them be face to face;
Open our lips, open our minds to ponder,
Open the door of concord opening into grace;
Perish the sword, perish the angry judgment,
Perish the bombs and hunger, perish the fight for gai;
Hallow our love, hallow the deaths of martyrs,
Hallow their holy freedom, hallowed be thy name;
Thy kingdom come, they spirit turn to language,
Thy people speak together, thy spirit never fade;
Let there be light, open our hearts to wonder,
Perish the way of terror, hallow the world God made.
Amazing Grace
Amazing grace! how sweet the sound,
That saved a wretch; like me!
I once was lost, but now am found,
Was blind, but now I see.
’Twas grace that taught my heart to fear,
And grace my fears relieved;
How precious did that grace appear
The hour I first believed!
The Lord hath promised good to me,
His word my hope secures;
He will my shield and portion be
As long as life endures.
Through many dangers, toils, and snares
I have already come;
‘tis grace that brought me safe thus far,
And grace will lead me home.
When we’ve been there ten thousand years,
Bright shining as the sun,
We’ve no less days to sing God’s praise
Than when we first begun.
