Lyrics I Saw The Light - Mark Schultz

I Saw The Light

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 —
