Led By The Light

orchidee



Tune: Richmond

('City of God, how broad and far')

Ephesians 5 v.8-12

*********

At one time you were as darkness

Without the light, no less

But now you are light in the Lord

He guides you by His word

 

So live as children of the light

And pleasing in God's sight

For the fruit of the Spirit be

In good, right, true things, see

 

Prove what is acceptable to

The Lord, as servants, do

Have no fellowship with the dark

Unto their ways not hark

 

For they be unfruitful, and shame

Comes to them, that their blame

Doing secret evils, the light

Shall expose all to sight

        The beauty of light is that is exposes all, so that we may be enlightened. A good write my friend.
