Mahalia Jackson
He’s My Light
He's my light
The man of Galilee
And I know
He's got his arm around me
I'm glad to say
That his love is ever true
How I and mine
Are his possesions
And he'll forgive
All my transgressions
He died for me
Like no other could do
He's my light
My guiding light
I don't have to worry
Day or night
By his light
He makes my pathway bright
All the way
Each step of the way
Oh he paid that awful price
That I might have
A right to the Tree of Life
And I shall dwell with him
Forever
He is my light
Oh, my guiding light
