Michael W Smith - Lux Venit lyrics

Words: Amy Grant and Bev Darnall

Music: Michael W. Smith

Lux venit lux venit

Lux venit sursum corda

Lux venit lux venit arise

Shine for your light has come

By sword by flame

in death solemn ages passed

And voices young

Grow old weary

Holding fast

Hope for the dawning

Lux venit lux venit

Lux venit sursum corda

Lux venit lux venit arise

Shine for your light has come

In grace in might

The babe lay in stable stark

Redemptions's light

Pierces through the shadows dark

Alleluia

Lux venit lux venit

Sursum corda

Lux venit lux venit arise

Shine for your light has come

Lux venit lux venit

Lux venit sursum corda

Lux venit lux venit arise

Shine for your light has come

Alleluia

Lux venit: "The light has come"

Sursum corda: "look upwards hearts"
