Early last week a fellow blogger posted a short quote that immediately brought to mind the Hank Williams Sr. song “I Saw the Light.” As a result, it has been stuck in my head all week. This is fine with me because it is a great song, and so I decided I would share it with you. The lyrics are:
I wandered so aimless life filled with sin
I wouldn’t let my dear saviour in
Then Jesus came like a stranger in the night
Praise the Lord I saw the light.
CHORUS
I saw the light I saw the light
No more darkness no more night
Now I’m so happy no sorrow in sight
Praise the Lord I saw the light.
Just like a blind man I wandered along
Worries and fears I claimed for my own
Then like the blind man that God gave back his sight
Praise the Lord I saw the light.
CHORUS
I was a fool to wander and a-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.
CHORUS
And here is a video of Hank singing it from YouTube:
