Light of the World - lyrics
Light of the world, You stepped down into darkness
Opened my eyes, let me see
Beauty that made this heart adore You
Hope of my life spent with You
And here I am to worship
Here I am to bow down
Here I am to say that You're my God
You're altogether lovely
Altogether worthy
Altogether wonderful to me
King of all days
Oh, so highly exalted
Glorious in heaven above
Humbly You came to the earth You created
All for love's sake became poor
And here I am to worship
Here I am to bow down
Here I am to say that You're my God
You're altogether lovely
Altogether worthy
Altogether wonderful to me
I'll never know how much it cost
To see my sin upon that cross

Beautifully balanced composition of the holy family - the softly rounded forms of the adobe wrap around them perfectly. Lovely tones.

Hi Lucinda...I like your image. This is a lovely location, helped make Ansel Adams famous, Is this statue always there or only on special occasions? I have been there several times and never seen it. Well done...Cheers Bob f/v
Lucinda Walter replied:
Hi Bob, I'm not sure if this statue is there all the time. I assumed it is. We were there a couple of years ago in June and it was outside the church. Thanks. Cheers.
