Chris be our light by Bernadette Farrell
Longing for light, we wait in darkness
Longing for truth, we turn to you
Make us your own, your holy people
Light for the world to see
Refrain:
Chris be our light
Shine in our heart, shine through the darkness
Chris be our light
Shine in your church, gather today
Longing for peace, our world is troubled
Longing for hope, many despair
Your word alone, has pow'r to save us
Make us your living voice
Longing for food, many are hungry
Longing for water, many still thirst
Make us your bread, broken for others
Share until are fed
Longing for shelter, many are homeless
Longing for warmth, many are cold
Make us your building, sheltering others
Walls made of living stone
Many the gifts, many the people
Many the hearts, that yearn to belong
Let us be servants to one another
Making your kingdom come
Longing for truth, we turn to you
Make us your own, your holy people
Light for the world to see
Refrain:
Chris be our light
Shine in our heart, shine through the darkness
Chris be our light
Shine in your church, gather today
Longing for peace, our world is troubled
Longing for hope, many despair
Your word alone, has pow'r to save us
Make us your living voice
Longing for food, many are hungry
Longing for water, many still thirst
Make us your bread, broken for others
Share until are fed
Longing for shelter, many are homeless
Longing for warmth, many are cold
Make us your building, sheltering others
Walls made of living stone
Many the gifts, many the people
Many the hearts, that yearn to belong
Let us be servants to one another
Making your kingdom come
