Thou art love and Thou art light, Lord

lyricist: Witness Lee
Composer: Silas Jones Vail

Thou art love and Thou art light

Lord

In the Son as life Thou art;

Love expressing

light illum’ning

Thou dost life to us impart.

Thou art love! Thou art light!

In the Son as life Thou art;

Love expressing

light illum’ning

Thou dost life to us impart.

Love bespeaks Thy very being

What Thou dost is shown by light;

Love is inward

light is outward

Love accompanies the light.

Love by grace is manifested

And the light by truth is shown;

By Thy love we may enjoy Thee;

By Thy light Thou

Lord

art known.

Thru Thy love

which led to Calvary

We receive the life of God;

Light our understanding opens

That we may apply the blood.

Thru Thy love

as life Thou enter’st

Fellowship with Thee to give;

Thru Thy light we take Thy cleansing

And in fellowship may live.

By the light and blood which cleanses

The anointing we shall know;

Then the life of love Thine essence

More and more in us will flow.

By Thy love we are Thy children

Abba Father calling Thee;

Light disperses all our darkness

Till

like Him

Thy Son

we see.

O what grace! O what truth!

Love is seen and light is shown!

We would praise Thee never ceasing

Thou by love and light art known!
