[Intro]
Yeah
No, no, no
I want that light, oh, ayy
(Let there be light)
Oh, let there be, oh
Oh, that light
[Chorus]
See, I want that light in my house (Oh, let there be light)
I want that light in my car (Oh, let there be light)
I want that light in my pain (Oh, let there be light)
I want that light when it's dark, dark, da-dark
Oh, no, let there be (Oh, let there be)
Oh, let there be (Oh, let there be)
Oh, li-light
No, no, no, no, no, no, let there, lеt there be light
[Verse]
For all thе fathers and the teachers (Working hard in the night)
For all the builders and the cleaners (I pray, "Let there be light")
Oh, for all the farmers and the chefs and the train-drivers, yes
The nurses and the doctors, God bless the NHS
Let the pay rise, let the pay rise up
Let there be li-li-li-light
For all those overworked and underpaid and dreams of somewhere out of sight
Let there be light
Single mother, all alone (She's all alone)
The baby's cryin'
And she's cryin' tears too, to her sister on the phone
Bring her comfort, bring her peace
I pray Lord, please, yeah, yeah
[Bridge]
Da-da-doo, da-doo, da-doo, da-doo, doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
(Now that's what I'm talking about)
Oh, let there be
Lord, let there be
Don't we all need a little?
[Chorus]
See, I want that, that light in my house, (Oh, let there be light)
I want that light in my car, yeah (Oh, let there be light)
I want that light in my dreams, yeah, doo-de
Oh, baby, light all the dark, yes
Light up the dark, Lord (Oh, let there be light)
Let there be light, Lord
[Outro]
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
Do-do-do, do-do-do, do-do-do
Ooh, hey
