Advent special! Luke 1:67-79 Chris Lizotte sings "All of the Light We See"

This week is the first week in Advent and how wonderful to reflect on the Benedictus, the prayer of Zachariah, after John the Baptist was born. You will love hearing Chad meditate on the richness of this beautiful passage of God's word.

Lyrics to "ALl of the Light We See"

Sunrise will greet us

Darkness is broken by the light

Blessed is Your name

For bringing  sight to the blind

The horn of salvation

Saving our kind

The sunrise will greet us

And guide us into Your light

You are the Light

My tongue was tied up

And so I waited, unable to speak

My faith had dried up 

But You are gentle,  offering   relief

You opened my lips

I sang in reply

The sunrise will greet us

And guide us into Your light

You are the Light

Chorus:

All of the light we see

Streams from Your mercy

Your love descends on the night

And  fear cannot stay

Shadows are scattered in flight

Let us prepare the way 

The sunrise will greet us

And guide us into Your light

You are the Light

From the shadow of death

To the rising sun

Forgiveness in Jesus

The battle is won
