Nitty Gritty Dirt Band - I Saw The Light Lyrics
I wandered so aimless, life filled with sin
I wouldn't let my Dear Saviour in
Then Jesus came like a stranger in the night
Praise the Lord I saw the light
No more darkness, no more night
Now I'm so happy, no sorrow in sight
Praise the Lord, I saw the 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
I saw the light, I saw the light
Now I'm so happy, no sorrow in sight
Praise the Lord, I saw the light
I was a fool to wander and stray
Straight is the gate and narrow the way
Now I have traded the wrong for the right
Praise the Lord, I saw the light
I saw the light, I saw the light
No more darkness, no more night
Now I'm so happy, no sorrow in sight
Praise the Lord, I saw the light.

Nitty Gritty Dirt Band I Saw The Light Comments
Excellent!
Jesus fetched me according to Ezekiel 34. No man. No denomination. No church. No program.
Just the Holy Ghost. What is this? Read the Bible and found I'd been saved! Glory be!
Then he filled me with the Holy Spirit. What's this? I never learned this language! Read the Bible some some more then realized Jesus had baptized me him self. Later I was water baptized
Will it last. Well, it has for 42 wonderful years. Trouble? Sickness? Hardships? Death pronouncements by doctors? Infirmities?. Mockings? Yes to all but he is with me. Jesus sits high but looks low to see pathetic creatures like me and picks them up and washes them In his blood and sends them on his, way rejoicing! Amen brethren!
now that's music for the Hart and foot stopping music!!!
thanks to Hank Williams Sr too 😉
Roy Acuff sang, "I didn't hear nobody prayin', oh brother."
I'll say, "I didn't hear nobody sayin' that this song was written by Hank Williams." Oh Brother!
i like this song it's very good and won't to get up and jump for joy when I hear it
Dear God, I know that I’m not perfect, I know sometimes I forget to pray. I know I have questioned my faith, I know sometimes I lose my temper, but thank you for loving me unconditionally and giving me another day to start over again.
That is about the most perfect prayer I can imagine. Bless you!
i would like to post this on my facebook is that ok..
Acuff. Makes you believe, even if you didn't already.... Priceless.
I always loved Sunday morning.. Played “Country Music Oldies “ on the radio, pot of coffee and the paper.. Wonderful memories.. Unfortunately that show doesn’t play on Sunday mornings anymore.. love to have it back!
Unloved and unclaimed a great song by Mr Acuff . 7-20- 19 yes still love the old tunes !!
I miss those days of waking up on saturday mornings to my dad playing the banjo or guitar.
He saw the light, he saw the light, invented Adobe, made me cry.
Jesus came like an angel in the night... #4cornersoflaw

Ty. So much
Vassar Clements is A-Mazing
I LOVE I SAW THE LIGHT SONG IT'S AWESOME.
Roy Acuff came to Wiggins Mississippi 1970 to dedicate the Opening of The Dizzy Dean museum What a treat. He and Mr Dean were good friends. I was 16 years old. Just one part of a million stories.
...🎼🎶🇺🇸💝🐝. THANKS. BOBZGT👣🎲🔮💎
Old maynardville boy
I can NOT listen to this song without wanting to dance for joy and praise God
Melissa very nice 😇
Me too..lol
👀 ☀ no more🌚
I met and sat and Roy Acuff ‘s lap for about almost a hour.
Only flaw in this selection is the annoying overbearing harmonica playing literally over Vassar’s break. He should have not been playing during the fiddle break since the harp is on the same frequency of the fiddle. He did’t understand this because he does this throughout the album.
Vassar was the tasteful professional, not him.
Jackass. Don't like it, don't listen. Keep your feeble opinion to yourself and your cat.
Fuck your banjo if you can't play this......
Spokelse
Lol, mutt.
I love this song on the night of my mom passed away I dang I saw the light in the style of hand Williams
Amen!! this is gospel in an art form!!
Love this.
Fuck this shit is tight.
ハンク・ウィリアムズは偉大なミュージシャンです。
love this song hugs from andalusia spain
can never go wrong with roy acuff or nitty gritty dirt band
I don't get the feeling listening to this that they really did see the light. It clicks along like a metronome. Technically perfect but lacking soul.
The guitar solo has soul.
hallelujah make a joyful noise
Wow what a beautiful song *I SAW THE LIGHT* and that song it really bless my heart and soul .🎤🎶🎸
Proud to say this is my great great uncle. The name is Forest Acuff and my brothers name is Clayton Acuff. Let that Acuff blood flow
Forest Acuff I use to take lessons from Ruth acuffs husband
Wow! Blessings on your life and your bloodline. True magic here
the blues run in your veins.. keep it going,, do u have any children, and do they play yet
An honor!
That is awesome.
me Me and my paw listen to this song when. we go fora ride in the ranger
My dad had this album(vinyl) when I was a kid.I just sort of tolerated it then;had to grow up a bit to appreciate it.Now it's a happy memory for me,since he passed 6 years ago.Thanks,Roger Ramjet.
Beautiful memory. Thank you for sharing. I'm sorry for your loss.
Mr Roy had a grand voice

Wish i can just pack up and walk down the road from all my problems cause im high functioning autistic have been bullied by gangs cheated scammed by five girls in school abused at home then evicted and cooped at my other uncle and aunts barn with no job no friends no girlfriend no life and listen to this! Its just so hard for me to keep my head and im at a big church and a pantry and not much people talk to me and have no friends and i never get any of my disability money!
John Griswold. Give everyday a chance. Its a gift. I lost my wife Of 40 yrs to cancer 3 yrs ago Christmas Eve. I miss her so much, my heart won't stop hurtin. Now, I drink too much and get stoned every night, But every day I get up and do the next thing on the list. Just give everyday a chance. I will think of you and hope you're ok.
I tried it. Trump is still there.
Love this song, I'm just a crazy music loving atheist.
There is a good bit of Gospel music that you cannot help but love the tune. You may be surprised sure, you may turn to the Lord from listening to some of these songs! They have great meanins!
