Verse 1

Christ is the world's true light
Its captain of salvation
The daystar clear and bright
And joy of every nation
New life new hope awakes
Where'er we own His sway
Freedom her bondage breaks
And night is turned to day

Verse 2

In Christ all races meet
Their ancient feuds forgetting
The whole round world complete
From sunrise to its setting
When Christ is throned as Lord
All shall forsake their fear
To ploughshare beat the sword
To pruning-hook the spear

Verse 3

One Lord in one great name
Unite us all who own thee
Cast out our pride and shame
That hinder to enthrone thee
The world has waited long
Has travailed long in pain
To heal its ancient wrong
Come Prince of Peace and reign

Composer: Percy E. B. Coller

Includes Wide Format PowerPoint file!

Updated Format! Beginning in November of 2016, we changed the way we formatted our PowerPoint files. The font is larger and the staff lines are bolder, making the songs easier to read from a greater distance, including smaller screens/monitors in the rear of the sanctuary.

All songs digitized previous to that date are in the "older" format.
