French Chansons Friday: Comme un Phare

Sans ta lumière, Seigneur, que ferions-nous dans ce monde?
Without you light Lord, what would we do in this world?
Perdus au large dans le brouillard, au gré des vents?
Lost offshore in the fog, going where the wind blows?
Sans ta lumière, Seigneur, où irions-nous dans ce monde?
Without you light Lord, where would we be in this world?
La mer est immense, sans ta présence, que ferions-nous?
The sea is immense without your presence, what would we do?

Come un phare dans la nuit, tu brilles sur tes enfants
Like a light in the night, you shine on your children
Tu nous guides vers le port, au coeur de ton amour.
You guide us towards the door to the heart of your love.

Sans ta lumière Seigneur, que serions-nous dans ce monde?
Without you light Lord, what would be be in this world?
En perdition, sans direction, cherchant la voie?
In perdition, without direction, looking for the way
Sans ta lumière Seigneur, où irions-nous dans ce monde?
Without your light Lord, where would we be in this world?
Que décider, qui écouter, que ferions-nous?
What to decide, who to listen to, what would we do?

Token youtube video of it... I might turn this into a token comedy video seeing as pretty much all french christian songs only seem to be available as cringeworthily amusing, although also in this case, pretty cute too!
