Let There Be Light Cifras

[Intro]
F A# C
F A# C
 
 
[Verse 1]
            C
When the mandolin sang like a bird on the wing
         C             F
In the hands of Bill Monroe
      C
When Chet played guitar like a walk in the park
         C                  F
Like a prodigal son coming home
       C
They spoke into being the work of their hands
          F
From the void of the wire and the wood
           C
And they stood on the stage
          C
And they sang and they played
           F               G
And they said that it was good
 
 
[Chorus]
               C
Let there be light
               F
Let there be love
               C                  G
Let there be light, let there be love
              C    Em F G
Let there be music
 
 
[Verse 2]
       C
Now, Arron's a preacher and I play guitar
     A#
And Jim, he can tune up your Ford
 C
Dave is in law school for 800 years
         A#
For the sake of the sick and the poor
      C
The work of our hands is the salt of the earth
     F
The music we make is the light of the world
         Am            C             F    G
Let it shine, let it shine, let it shine
 
 
[Chorus]
                        C
And say, let there be light
               F
Let there be love
               C                   G
Let there be light, let there be love
              C    Em F G
Let there be music
 
                       Am   C          F   G
When your spirit is hovering over the deep
        Am                     C                       D
In the image of God just look into that darkness and speak
              Dm                  G                   C   F G C F
Let there be light, let there be love, let there be music
 
 
[Verse 3]
              C
So let the mandolin play like a mother's embrace
         A#
Let the fiddle be warm as a smile
          C
Let the guitar be bright as a friend at your side
             A#
When you're lost on a long lonely mile
          C
Let the music be sweet as the washing of feet
         F
And as gentle as a kiss
         Am                       C
Let the love that we feel be as light as a reel
        F                   G
And as real as the love we give
 
 
[End Chorus]
                  C
So let there be light
               F
Let there be love
               C                  G
Let there be light, let there be love
              F
Let there be music
                      C
And say, let there be light
               F
Let there be love
               C                  G
Let there be light, let there be love
               C    F
Let there be music
