Light of the World Tab

by Matt Redman


 VERSE 1:
       D       Em       D/F               G
O Jesus son of God , so full of grace and truth
    D               Em       D             G
The Father's saving Word, so wonderful are you
Am7             G/B          Cadd9          Dsus2
     The Angels longed to see, and prophets searched to find
Am7            G/B                Cadd9
     The glory we have seen revealed

VERSE 2:
C        D         Em         D/F            G   
You shone upon the earth, but who will understand?
         D         Em       D/F           G
You came unto Your own, but who will recognise?
Am7               G/B       Cadd9          D   
   Your birth was prophesied, for You were the Messiah
Am7             G/B             Cadd9
   Who came and walked upon the Earth
Am7           G/B        Cadd9          D   
   Your glory we have seen, the one and only King
Am7               G/B           Cadd9
   And now You're living in our hearts

CHORUS:
C/G
Light of the world, light of the world
  			   	      G
Light of the world, You shine upon us
	
VERSE 3:
In You all things were made and nothing without You
In heaven and on earth all things are held in You
And yet You became flesh, living as one of us 
Under the shadow of the cross
Where, through the blood you shed, You have made peace again
Peace for a world that God so loves

PRE-CHORUS:
Am7            G/B           Cadd9     D
   And yet You became flesh, living as one of us 
Am7           G/B           Cadd9              
    Under the shadow of the cross
Am7                  G/B           Cadd9           D
  Where, through the blood you shed, You have made peace again
Am7             G/B               Caad9
    Peace for a world that God so loves
