"Light of the World"
Copyright 2012, Tano Music
Words & Music by Tom Sperrazzo
Light for the new born world!
Light entered the world,
So night would not hold fear;
Light flooded the world
From a word that came from nowhere;
Light showered the world
And fed the flowers destined to live here;
Light brightened the world
Warming the children born from somewhere.
Bright and gentle white just like a dove always in sight there
Our light is like a sign in the sky;
Sunlight and moonlight, starlight--
Light for the newborn world!
Light for the newborn world!
