The Mysteries of Light


First Mystery of Light: 
The Baptism of Jesus in the Jordan

Then Jesus came from Galilee to the Jordan to John, to be baptized by him. John would have prevented him, saying, "I need to be baptized by you, and do you come to me?" But Jesus answered him, "Let it be so now; for thus it is fitting for us to fulfil all righteousness." Then he consented. And when Jesus was baptized, he went up immediately from the water, and behold, the heavens were opened and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove, and alighting on him; and lo, a voice from heaven, saying, "This is my beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased."      MATTHEW 3:13-17

Our Father, 10 Hail Mary's, Glory Be
O Jesus, forgive us our sins . . .

 

1.
Let's all join together in Communion sweet
Walk, walk, in the light
And love one another till the Saviour we meet,
Walk, walk, in the light. .

Chorus:

Walk, in the light
Walk in the light
Walk in the light
Walk in the light of God.

 


Second Mystery of Light:
Jesus' glory is revealed at Cana

On the third day there was a marriage at Cana in Galilee, and the mother of Jesus was there; Jesus also was invited to the marriage, with his disciples. When the wine failed, the mother of Jesus said to him, "They have no wine." And Jesus said to her, "O woman, what have you to do with me? My hour has not yet come." His mother said to the servants, "Do whatever he tells you." Now six stone jars were standing there, for the Jewish rites of purification, each holding twenty or thirty gallons. Jesus said to them, "Fill the jars with water." And they filled them up to the brim. He said to them, "Now draw some out, and take it to the steward of the feast." So they took it. When the steward of the feast tasted the water now become wine, and did not know where it came from (though the servants who had drawn the water knew), the steward of the feast called the bridegroom and said to him, "Every man serves the good wine first; and when men have drunk freely, then the poor wine; but you have kept the good wine until now." This, the first of his signs, Jesus did at Cana in Galilee, and manifested his glory; and his disciples believed in him.    JOHN 2:1-11

Our Father, 10 Hail Mary's, Glory Be
O Jesus, forgive us our sins . . .

2.
Jesus died on Calvary
Walk, walk, in the light
To save the lost like you and me Chorus
Walk, walk, in the light

Walk, in the light
Walk in the light
Walk in the light
Walk in the light of God.


Third Mystery of Light:
Jesus proclaims the Kingdom of God and calls all to repentance

Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of God, and saying, "The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand; repent, and believe in the gospel."    MARK 1: 15

Our Father, 10 Hail Mary's, Glory Be
O Jesus, forgive us our sins . . .

3.
But then again that's not the end
Walk, walk, in the light
He lives today, He'll be your friend
Walk, walk, in the light

Walk, in the light
Walk in the light
Walk in the light
Walk in the light of God.


Fourth Mystery of Light:  The Transfiguration

Now about eight days after these sayings he took with him Peter and John and James, and went up on the mountain to pray. And as he was praying, the appearance of his countenance was altered, and his raiment became dazzling white. And behold, two men talked with him, Moses and Elijah, who appeared in glory and spoke of his departure, which he was to accomplish at Jerusalem. Now Peter and those who were with him were heavy with sleep, and when they wakened they saw his glory and the two men who stood with him. And as the men were parting from him, Peter said to Jesus, "Master, it is well that we are here; let us make three tents, one for you and one for Moses and one for Elijah"--not knowing what he said. As he said this, a cloud came and overshadowed them; and they were afraid as they entered the cloud. And a voice came out of the cloud, saying, "This is my Son, my Chosen; listen to him!" And when the voice had spoken, Jesus was found alone.     LUKE 9:28-36

Our Father, 10 Hail Mary's, Glory Be
O Jesus, forgive us our sins . . .

4.
Jesus did just what He said
Walk, walk, in the light
He healed the sick and He raised the dead.
Walk, walk, in the light

Walk, in the light
Walk in the light
Walk in the light
Walk in the light of God.


 

Fifth Mystery of Light:
Jesus institutes the Blessed Eucharist

Now as they were eating, Jesus took bread, and blessed, and broke it, and gave it to the disciples and said, "Take, eat; this is my body." And he took a cup, and when he had given thanks he gave it to them, saying, "Drink of it, all of you; for this is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins. I tell you I shall not drink again of this fruit of the vine until that day when I drink it new with you in my Father's kingdom."     MATTHEW 26: 26-29

Our Father, 10 Hail Mary's, Glory Be
O Jesus, forgive us our sins . . .

Walk in the light
Walk in the light
Walk in the light of God.
