Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Let the Light from the Lighthouse Shine..
I used to sing in a gospel choir
it was either St Brigid or New Life
we did a song that was adapted, i think, by the new york restoration choir
the lyrics went like this:

i saw the light
i saw the light
no more darkness
no more night
no more pain
misery and strife
praise the lord, praise the lord, praise the lord, I saw the light

Jesus is the light, light of the world
Jesus is the light, light of the world
Jesus is the light, light of the world
praise the lord, praise the lord, praise the lord, I saw the light

shine, shine, shine on me
let the light, from the lighthouse, shine on me

(new octave)
shine, shine, shine on me
let the light from the lighthouse shine on me

(all three octaves)
shine, shine, shine on me
let the light, from the lighthouse, shine on me

shine, shine shine
shine shine shine
shine on me
let the light, from the lighthouse shine on me

praise the lord, praise the lord, praise the lord, I saw the light

...it goes on and on like this..in harmonies..it is incredible
i have looked and looked and i cannot find it anywhere on line
i have a copy of it on an old tape cassette that barely works anymore!!!
