Praise The Lord I Saw The Light!

Last night we took the kids to the Winter Jam concert.  Oh, we had an incredible time!  Saw something like ten of our favorite Christian artists.  This was my kids' first concert and they loved it.  They got two meet KJ52 and Sidewalk Prophets and had their pictures taken with them.  It will be a great memory.

As I sat (or stood most of the time) I looked around.  It was so neat to see Christians of different ages and backgrounds came together to worship our Savior.  There were children (mine included) even little ones like my four year old nephew.  There were teens, twenty-somethings, thirty-somethings, forty-somethings, fifty-somethings, sixty-somethings, seventy-somethings and even Michael Tait's sweet eighty-two year old mother.  All ages.  We all come from different home lives, different careers, different struggles, yet we all come with one purpose, to worship.  Christian concerts are so great because yes, you are entertained, but you also worship and at Winter Jam (and many other Christian concerts) they share the message of the Gospel.  It was such a beautiful thing.

As David Crowder Band was closing their set, they sang a wonder song that I haven't heard in a long time.  But I wanted to share it with you today.  Please take the time to really read the words and praise the Lord, we saw the Light!

 I Saw The Light :

I’ve 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

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
 
I’ve walked in darkness, clouds covered me

I had no idea where the way out could be

Then came the sunrise and rolled back the night

Praise the Lord, I saw the light

Just like a blind man I wandered alone

Worries and fear I claimed for my own

Then like a blind man who God gave back his sight

Praise the Lord, I saw the light

When death takes me down and I breath here no more

My anthem will sound on that eternal shore

When I join with the angels in heaven on high

Singing “Praise the Lord, I saw the light”

I’ve 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

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

I’ve walked in darkness, clouds covered me

I had no idea where the way out could be

Then came the sunrise and rolled back the night

Praise the Lord, I saw the light

Just like a blind man I wandered alone

Worries and fear I claimed for my own

Then like a blind man who God gave back his sight

Praise the Lord, I saw the light

When death takes me down and I breath here no more

My anthem will sound on that eternal shore

When I join with the angels in heaven on high

Singing “Praise the Lord, I saw the light”
