Lyrics Emmylou Harris

Emmylou Harris

I Saw the Light

I wandered so aimless, life filled with sin

I wouldn’t let my dear savior in

Then jesus came like a stranger in the night

Praise the lord, I saw the light.

Just like a blind man I wandered a long,

Worries and fears I claimed for my own.

Then like the blind man that God gave back my sight

Praise the lord, I saw the light

I was a fool to wander and stray,

Straight is the gate and narrow the way

Now I have traded the wrong for the right

Praise the lord, I saw the light

I saw the light, I saw the light

No more in darkness no more in night

Now I’m so happy, no sorrow in sight

Praise the lord, I saw the light
