Come To the Light Commentary

Our pastor was delivering a sermon on John the Baptist. He spoke of how John's primary mission was to be a witness to the Light. During the sermon, the pastor asked a question that I found very intriguing, "If you knew a person that was blind all their life and they never saw anything but darkness, how would you go about describing the light to that person?" He said that you would have to get the person close enough to the light that they could feel the heat so they could understand. This song starts out with the questions he raised on that Sunday, "How do you describe the Light to the blind?"
