Well, I was thinking more along the lines of actual scripture like,

Ps. 27:1 The Lord is my light and my salvation; Whome shall I fear?

Matt.5:14 You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden.

Rev. 21:23 The city had no need of the sun or of the moon to shine in it, for the glory of God illuminated it. The Lamb is its light.

I really like that last one. I had thought there was something about Jesus being the Light of the World, but I haven't found the direct reference yet.

I like the scripture.

I was thinking of the song "Here I am to Worship" when you mentioned "light of the world" since that is the first line of the song.

I'll look up the light of the world reference if I can...

John 8:12 and John 9:5-

John 8:12 Jesus said to the people, "I am the light of the world. If you follow me, you won't be stumbling through the darkness, because you will have the light that leads to life."

John 9:5 But while I am still here in the world, I am the light of the world."

That what you were looking for?

Yep! Thanks for finding that. Seems like light would make a good word study.
