about

One of our very first group concert songs, which we performed hundreds of times in the late 70's and early 80's. This represents our first studio recording in the digital age to use the full classic-band lineup. We are all singing together, Mike, Mark, Dave & Denise. It is Mark, Mike, Greg, Dave & Tony playing our instruments. This keynotes an album that borrows heavily from our very beginning, and appeals with hope to a modern world in need of it.

Light of the World
by Mark A. Lajoie
Copyright 2011, RN SR 679-889

When I look at my-self and at o-thers
It seems that no one real-ly bo-thers to love, to love
But when I pray I can see God re-veal-ing
And now I'm real-ly be-liev-ing we'll be the Light of the World

Sing Ho-san-na, Ho-san-na to Je-sus
He's the One who is go-ing to lead us to life, to life
(So lift your hearts)
So lift your hearts and your voi-ces to hea-ven
Je-sus calls us to be his lea-ven and salt, the Light of the World

I can see e-very-bo-dy re-viv-ing
I can see e-very-bo-dy striv-ing to love, to love
So lift your hearts and your voi-ces to hea-ven
Je-sus calls us to be his lea-ven and salt, the Light of the World

Sing Ho-san-na, Ho-san-na to Je-sus
He's the One who is go-ing to lead us to life, to life
So lift your hearts and your voi-ces to hea-ven
Je-sus calls us to be his lea-ven and salt, the Light of the World

Hey! I've got some-thing I want to say
You may lis-ten or per-haps you may not
Just count the cost

Sing Ho-san-na, Ho-san-na to Je-sus
He's the One who is go-ing to lead us to life, to life
So lift your hearts and your voi-ces to hea-ven
Je-sus calls us to be his lea-ven and salt, the Light of the World

[lead]

Eye's not seen and ear's not heard
What God's re-vealed to us in his Word
Have you heard?

Sing Ho-san-na, Ho-san-na to Je-sus
He's the One who is go-ing to lead us to life, to life
So lift your hearts and your voi-ces to hea-ven
Je-sus calls us to be his lea-ven and salt, the Light of the World

Shine the light! Shine the light!
Shine the light! (of Je-sus) Shine the light! (of Je-sus)
Shine the light! (of Je-sus) Shine the light! (of Je-sus)
Shine the light! (of Je-sus) Shine the light! (of Je-sus)

The Light of the world! (The Light of the world)
