I Saw The Light Lyrics - 1956

[ Buy I Saw The Light ]

Words and music by hank williams sr.

I [g] wandered so aimless life filed with sin
I [c] wouldn't let my dear saviour [g] in
Then jesus came like a stranger in the night
Praise the lord [d7] i saw the [g] light.

Chorus
I saw the light i saw the light
[c] no more darkness no more [g] night
Now i'm so happy no sorrow in sight
Praise the lord [d7] i saw the [g] light.

Just like a blind man i wandered along
Worries and fears i claimed for my own
Then like the blind man that god gave back his sight
Praise the lord i saw the light.

Chorus

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

Chorus
