1.

/: God’s power to overcome all sin is at hand, :/
/: And God’s great, triumphant host is taking the land. :/

Chorus:

Walk in the light, walk in the light!
Let us all walk in God’s light, that light so great and wondrous.

2.

/: ’Tis God’s living Word that makes us happy and bold. :/
/: Yes, righteousness, freedom, and Mount Zion—our goal. :/

3.

/: O soul, you who find this world is empty and dark, :/
/: Come join our great host. To light and judgment we march. :/

4.

/: The blind have their sight restored; the lame rise and walk. :/
/: With joy we progress, though people curse us and mock. :/

5.

/: The souls, poor in spirit, every true, upright one— :/
/: United in fellowship—from Babel they come. :/

6.

/: Now judgment and war start from the house of our Lord. :/
/: What’s great comes to naught as living water’s outpoured. :/

7.

/: So thanks be to God in heaven; sing it aloud! :/
/: He places with princes all the poor and the bowed. :/

8.

/: See, these are God’s warriors on our dark, sinful earth. :/
/: A glorious feast we’ll share with such men of worth. :/
