In the heart of hearts
In that lonely place
There is only desperation
Brokenness and pride

In the heart of hearts
In that darkened space
There is only fear and trembling
Crying now for grace

Jesu, Light of lights
Jesu, Life of lives
Shine inside my heart of hearts
Jesu, Light of lights

'Tis the heart of hearts
Beating to redeem
Love patient and enduring 
Born on Christmas Eve

On that night of nights
Hope's eternal flame
Burning for each lost and lonely soul
For these tears He came

Jesu, Light of lights
Jesu, Life of lives
Shine inside my heart of hearts
Jesu Light, Jesu Light of lights

Jesu, Light of lights
Born this holy night
Beacon, shine out from the darkness
Jesu, light of lights
Shine inside my heart of hearts
Jesu Light, Jesu Light of lights
