Eternal Light of Life

[Eternal Light of Life]

[Verse1]
Eternal life, in the Lord's deep promise embrace
Awakened by the Word of soul, spirit, grace
Shed tears for evil in nature's hidden place
Conscience and heart, dyed in His love's trace
[Chorus]
Oh, eternal light of life, in God's Word we reside
All souls worldwide, enveloped in tears of grace wide
Slay deeds of flesh, bloom in spirit's tide
Possess eternal life, in glory abide
[Verse2]
Adam's tearful sin, spirit fades away
Truth flows out, untruth's darkness holds sway
Deeds of body, wounded flesh in dismay
From perishable to eternal hope's ray
[Chorus]
Oh, eternal light of life, in God's Word we reside
All souls worldwide, enveloped in tears of grace wide
Slay deeds of flesh, bloom in spirit's tide
Possess eternal life, in glory abide
[Verse3]
Works of flesh, hate and envy pains release
From sin-bound body, freedom's winds increase
God's children, new man in joy's sweet peace
Holy deeds bloom love's flowers with ease
[Chorus]
Oh, eternal light of life, in God's Word we reside
All souls worldwide, enveloped in tears of grace wide
Slay deeds of flesh, bloom in spirit's tide
Possess eternal life, in glory abide
[Verse4]
In trials' flames, evil in nature unveiled
Like Job and David, tears of repentance hailed
Perfect spirit heart, in Lord's arms prevailed
Heaven hell divide, love's value unveiled
[Chorus]
Oh, eternal light of life, in God's Word we reside
All souls worldwide, enveloped in tears of grace wide
Slay deeds of flesh, bloom in spirit's tide
Possess eternal life, in glory abide
[Verse5]
Refine deeds of body, by grace so profound
Pure love forms fragrance, heavenly bound
Offer life's confession, pleasing sound
Conquer flesh by spirit, eternal found
[Chorus]
Oh, eternal light of life, in God's Word we reside
All souls worldwide, enveloped in tears of grace wide
Slay deeds of flesh, bloom in spirit's tide
Possess eternal life, in glory abide
[Verse6]
New creation, embraced in Lord's warm hold
Shed sin's body, eternal life unfold
Fruits of salvation, in tears behold
Spiritual children, await the day foretold
[Chorus]
Oh, eternal light of life, in God's Word we reside
All souls worldwide, enveloped in tears of grace wide
Slay deeds of flesh, bloom in spirit's tide
Possess eternal life, in glory abide
