True light, blazing in the darkest place

True light, blazing in the darkest place;
true light, shining out from Jesus’ face;
true light, chasing all the dark away;
true light, burning in our hearts today;
true light, shadows cannot make it dim.
God is light: darkness cannot hide from him.
So let us walk in his clear shining by day and night:
in Christ we live in light.
