[Verse 1]
Let me live blessed, Lord, in the light of Thy word
Let my life be a light on a hill
Leading souls now astray to the straight narrow way
Help me do some good deed while I live
[Chorus]
Let my life be a light shining out through the night
May I help struggling ones to the fold
Spreading cheer everywhere to the sad and the lone
Let my life be a light to some soul
[Verse 2]
Give me wisdom and power, every day, every hour
Let me drink from the fountain above
And guide my footsteps a right through this dark and stormy night
Give me peace, give me joy, give me love
[Chorus]
Let my life be a light shining out through the night
May I help struggling ones to the fold
Spreading cheer everywhere to the sad and the lone
Let my life be a light to some soul
[Verse 3]
Give me souls for my hire, let my light be on fire
Shining out to the world as a guide
Help me rescue someone sinking now with no hope
That in Heaven we shall ever abide
[Chorus]
Let my life be a light shining out through the night
May I help struggling ones to the fold
Spreading cheer everywhere to the sad and the lone
Let my life be a light to some soul
[Instrumental Bridge]
[Chorus]
Let my life be a light shining out through the night
May I help struggling ones to the fold
Spreading cheer everywhere to the sad and the lone
Let my life be a light to some soul
