I Saw The Light

(альбом: Mark Schultz - 2000)

I saw the light I saw the light Oh I saw the light He lived in a crowded
Jamaican infirmary Many were brought there to die Days of starvation
complete deprivation And illness had taken his sight But a doctor came to
the village there And treated him with the finest care
Said that time would tell The doctor went to bed that night And when he awoke
in the morning light The man could not be found He was singing from a hill

Oh I can see I saw the light I saw the light Oh I saw the light
And he sang Amazing Grace to show A loving God for all to know
With love and faith and grace Oh I can see

We met and my eyes could not hide how I felt When I looked at him tattered and torn
But he captured me with a smile that seems so out of place From the pain
he'd endured And he told me of a sacrifice That had given him eternal life
He was not alone He spoke about a greater plan And I began to understand
My life was not my own And I am here to say

And I sang Amazing Grace to show A loving God for all to know
With love and faith and grace Oh I can see Amazing Grace how
sweet the sound That saved a wretch like me oh I once was lost
but now am found Was blind but now I see
