Cat Stevens - God Is The Light Lyrics
How great the wonders of the heavens
And the timeless beauty of the night
How great, then how great the Creator?
And its stars like priceless jewels
Far beyond the reach of kings
But how many eyes are closed
To the wonder of this night?
Like pearls, hidden, deep beneath a dark
Stream of desires
But like dreams vanish with the call to prayer
And the dawn extinguishes night, here too are signs
God is the Light, God is the Light
How great the beauty of the Earth and the creatures
How great, then how great the Creator?
As it's mountains pierce the clouds
High about the lives of men
Weeping rivers for thousands of years
But how many hearts are closed
To the wonders of this sight?
Like birds on a cage, asleep with closed wings
But as work stops with the call to prayer
And the birds recite, here too are signs
God is the Light, God is the Light
How great the works of man and the things he makes
How great, then how great the Creator?
Though he strives to reach the heavens
He can barely survive
The wars of the world he lives in
Yet, how many times he's tried
Himself to immortalise?
Like his parents before him in the Garden of Eden
But like the sun sets with the call to prayer
And surrenders to the night here too are signs
God is the Light Everlasting
God is the Light Everlasting

Would be more beautiful without the drums, why have instruments if there are peaceful vocals?
Aaminah Ahmed when our beloved Prophet Muhammad s.a.w arrive to medina, which intrument do u think they are using by welcoming him???
I enjoyed the drums--they were not overpowering.
I was told my half sister is "The Light". I dont think any creator of all this needs to seduce or set people up.
I love this song so much......from bangladesh
I love this song so much, such beautiful words and so true. Only Yusuf could write such a beautiful as this.
This song lives in my heart. And makes me cry with relief. God is the light everlasting.
🕊❤️🌍🌟✨
