- 2Go show to all the path of right,For ye are the light of the world,Go bring the straying back to light,For ye are the light of the world.For ye are the light of the world,(For ye are the light, the light of the world,)For ye are the light of the world;(For ye are the light, the light of the world;)Then keep your lamps all burning bright,For ye are the light of the world.
- 3Oh, do not let your light burn low,For ye are the light of the world,But keep it bright and onward go,For ye are the light of the world.For ye are the light of the world,(For ye are the light, the light of the world,)For ye are the light of the world;(For ye are the light, the light of the world;)Then keep your lamps all burning bright,For ye are the light of the world.
