Michael W. Smith Lux Venit
words by Amy Grant and Bev Darnell
music by Michael W. Smith
By sword by flame
In death solemn ages passed
And voices young
Grow old and weary
Holding fast
Hope for the dawning
Lux venit lux venit
Lux venit sursum corda
Lux venit lux venit arise
Shine for your light has come
Lux venit lux venit
Sursum corda
Lux venit lux venit arise
Shine for your light has come
In grace in might
The babe lay in a stable stark
Redemptions light
Pierces through the shadows dark
Alleluia
Lux venit lux venit
Lux venit sursum corda
Lux venit lux venit arise
Shine for your light has come
Lux venit lux venit
Lux venit sursum corda
Lux venit lux venit arise
Shine for your light has come
Alleluia Alleluia
Alleluia Alleluia
Lux venit: "The light has come"
Sursum corda: "Look upwards hearts"
