1 The whole world was lost in the darkness of sin;
The light of the world is Jesus;
Come to the light, 'tis shining for thee;
Sweetly the light has dawned upon me;
Once I was blind, but now I can see;
The light of the world is Jesus.
2 No darkness have we who in Jesus abide,
The light of the world is Jesus;
Come to the light, 'tis shining for thee;
Sweetly the light has dawned upon me;
Once I was blind, but now I can see;
The light of the world is Jesus.
3 Ye dwellers in darkness with sin-blinded eyes,
The light of the world is Jesus;
Come to the light, 'tis shining for thee;
Sweetly the light has dawned upon me;
Once I was blind, but now I can see;
The light of the world is Jesus.
