Pam Thum - Let There Be Light lyrics

There is no darkness that can hold us down Poverty and sickness have to go We are the body of the living Christ This is the truth that we now hold We have authority, walk in love and unity Time for us to stand up and say... Let there be love, let there be light Peace in the storm and joy through the night We've overcome, been justified Let there be love, let there be light You read the paper, watch the evening news You know that something's got to give But we have built on a foundation strong We are redeemed and we shall live We will fight and we will win Jesus broke the chains of sin Given us the power to say... Let there be love, let there be light Peace in the storm and joy through the night We've overcome, been justified Let there be love, let there be light In the beginning Darkness covered the face of the deep But the Spirit of God moved God stood to his feet And with a might voice, He said "Let there be light!" And the heavens and earth were filled With love and light (Oh, yeah) And in this crucial time and history Darkness would cover our homes Our schools and our nation But as children of the most high God Let's stand to our feet And with a might voice say "Let there be light!" Let there be love, let there be light Peace in the storm and joy through the night We've overcome, been justified Let there be love, let there be light Let there be joy, let there be peace Let there be kindness Let there be joy, let there be peace Let there be comfort to the lonely Let there be love, let there be light Peace in the storm and joy through the night We've overcome, been justified Let there be love, let there be light Let there be love, let there be light Peace in the storm and joy through the night (Oh, yeah) We've overcome, been justified Let there be love In the middle of the fear and the hate And the darkest night Let there be love When everything's wrong and nothing But nothing seems right Let there be love Let there be light Let there be light Let there be light
