In Him no Darkness

"Let there be light," God said;
And lo! across the chasm of the deep
All darkness fled
Dismayed before the One
Whose radiance outshine a noonday sun;
And dawn came on,
And morning out of nigh,
When God, sweeping across the chaos, said,
"Let there be light!"


"Let there be light!," God said;
And lo! from out my sinful heart
The darkness fled;
From bondage I was free.
I only looked in faith to Calvary,
Saw One and loved Him;
Thus I gained my sigh
When God swept down across my soul, and said,
"Let there be light!"
