Let There Be Light

Let there be light,

let there be understanding,

let all the nations gather,

let them be face to face.

​

Open our lips,

open our minds to ponder,

open the door of concord

opening into grace.

​

Perish the sword,

perish the angry judgment,

perish the bombs and hunger,

perish the fight for gain.

​

Let there be light,

open our hearts to wonder,

perish the way of terror,

hallow the world God made.
