I AM THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD
by Jim Strathdee
Chorus: "I am the light of the world (clap, clap, clap, clap)
you people come and follow me"
if you (clap) follow and love, you'll learn the mystery
of what you were meant to do and be
1. When the song of the angels is stilled
when the star in the sky is gone
when the kings and the shepherds have found their way home
the work of Christmas has begun
2. To find the lost and lonely one
to heal the broken soul with love
to feed the hungry children with warmth and good food
to feel the earth below, the sky above
3. To free the prisoner from all chains
to make the powerful care
to rebuild the nations with strength of goodwill
to see God's children everywhere!
4. To bring hope to every task you do
to dance at a baby's new birth
to make music in an old person's heart
and sing to the colors of the earth
