Lyrics

(Hank williams)

I wandered so aimless, life filled with sin
I wouldn't let my dear savior in
Then jesus came like a stranger in the night
Praise the lord, I saw the light

Just like a blind man I wandered a long
Worries and fears I claimed for my own
Then like the blind man that god gave back my sight
Praise the lord, I saw the light

I was a fool to wander and stray
Straight is the gate and narrow the way
Now I have traded the wrong for the right
Praise the lord, I saw the light

I saw the light, I saw the light
No more in darkness no more in night
Now I'm so happy, no sorrow in sight
Praise the lord, I saw the light
