[Verse 1] We were all taught by Elohim, He, the Father of our spirits And we wanted to be like Him To prove we're faithful, and fully His We've unique characteristics He designed our earth life with love And o'ersaw all the logistics What can we experience enough of? [Pre-Chorus] With a body of cravings that grow We would be subject to illness Pain, suff'ring and death we would know On our journey t'wards Father's fullness He lit up all the earth with a sign A light for our conscience that would save This Light had come from our Savior Who never strayed from all that's right [Chorus] Walk in the light Walk in the light May they see you've a countenance bright Walk in the light Walk in the light Glowing with warmth to brighten the way [Verse 2] As part of the plan, He must die After suff'ring for all our sins After all temptations were denied He'd help us return, as He ransoms We came as a babe that was mild Our prior existence was veiled So that we could learn as a child All that we prepared for and detailed Now, our lives are not perfect We make mistakes, and often sin But, tools are in place to protect Though, for some, from God's laws they harden [Pre-Chorus] As we learn to sense what is right We become privileged to find more Those with the Holy Ghost gain insight And can be a light like the Savior From our joy, we'll share the lights warmth As it illuminates our path Where for everyone there is room Hoping to see what the Father hath [Chorus] Walk in the light Walk in the light May they see you've a countenance bright Walk in the light Walk in the light Glowing with warmth to brighten the way [Bridge] You make choices every day That will keep you walking in the light And show new faith, when hope is dim For, if not you are moving away May you watch, may you pray May you help others walk in the light May they see you've a countenance bright Glowing with warmth to brighten the way [Final Chorus] Walk in the light Walk in the light May they see you've a countenance bright Walk in the light Walk in the light Glowing with warmth to brighten the way
