Robin Lamont, Jeffrey Mylett, Jerry Sroka and Gilmer McCormick - Light of the World

You are the light of the world!
You are the light of the world!
But if that light is under a bushel
Brrr, it's lost something kind of crucial

You got to stay bright to be the light of the world
You are the salt of the earth, you are the salt of the earth
But if that salt has lost it's flavor, it ain't got much in its favor
You can't have that fault and be the salt of the earth!

So let your light so shine before men
Let your light so shine
So that they might know some kindness again
We all need help to feel fine
(Let's have some wine!)

You are the city of God
You are the city of God
But if that city's on a hill, it's kinda hard to hide it well
You've got to stay pretty in the city of God

You are the light of the world, you are the light of the world
But the tallest candlestick
Ain't much good without a wick
You've got to stay bright to be the light of the world
(B'way)
You've got to live right to be the light of the world
(Film)
