- The Light of the World is Jesus
The whole world was lost in the darkness of sin,
The Light of the world is Jesus!
Like sunshine at noon-day, His glory shone in.
The Light of the world is Jesus!
Chorus:
Come to the light, 'tis shining for thee;
Sweetly the light has dawned upon me.
Once I was blind, but now I can see:
The Light of the world is Jesus!

Saved by Grace (Ephesians 2:8-9)
O Lord, as I think on Your goodness to me,
How can I be less than amazed?
Taking my burden, all of my sin,
You carry them all away, You carry them all away
Chorus:
We are saved by grace
We are saved by grace alone
No matter how darkened the stain of my sin (our sins)
The gift of His grace will atone
We are saved by grace, we are saved by grace alone
No deed we have done, no vic'try we've won,
-
None can save us . . . save grace alone

Just as I Am Without One Plea
- Just as I am, without one plea,
- But that Thy blood was shed for me,
- And that Thou bidst me come to Thee,
- O Lamb of God, I come, I come,
- O Lamb of God, I come, I come.

Be Thou My Vision (Philippians 3:7)
Be Thou my Vision, O Lord of my heart;
Nought be all else to me, save that Thou art.
Thou my best Thought, by day or by night,
Waking or sleeping, Thy presence my light.
