If we walk in the light, as He is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanseth us from all sin.
1 John 1:7

’Tis religion that can give
Sweetest pleasures while we live,
We will walk in the light of God;
’Tis religion can supply
Solid comfort when we die,
We will walk in the light of God.
Refrain
In the light, in the light,
We will walk in the light of God;
In the light, in the light,
We will walk in the light of God.
After death its joys will be
Lasting as eternity,
We will walk in the light of God;
Be the living God my friend,
Then my bliss shall never end,
We will walk in the light of God.
Refrain
