Many in darkness are far astray
Carry the light, carry the light
Spreading the beams of the gospel day
Carry the beautiful light
Tell them the gift of the Father’s love
How the dear Savior He gave
Tell them of mercy that smiles above
Jesus almighty to save

Chorus 1
Light! Light! Beautiful light
Streaming from heaven’s fair height
Living for Jesus, our precious Savior
Carry the beautiful light

Let us unite in this best employ
Carry the light, carry the light
Tell the good news of salvation’s joy
Carry the beautiful light
Singing of Jesus, our songs are bright
Bright with the blessing he brings
Helping to scatter the shades of night
Sing of the Lord’s healing wings

Chorus 2
Living for Jesus, we’ll work and pray
Carry the light, carry the light
Walking with Him in the shining way
Carry the beautiful light
O, there’s a glory that fills the heart
Sunshine of pardon and peace
Let us the secret to all impart
Helping the kingdom’s increase

Chorus 3
Clearer and clearer the dayspring glows
Carry the light, carry the light
Brighter and brighter the morning grows
Carry the beautiful light
Jesus is coming in wondrous might
Coming in splendor to reign
Sorrow and sighing shall take their flight
Eden shall blossom again

Repeat Chorus 1
