Listen from:
A blind Hindu boy, when dying, said joyfully: "I see! I see! I have light now. I see the King in His beauty. Tell the missionary the blind boy sees!"
A wounded soldier, asked if he were ready to die, said, "Oh yes: my Savior in whom I have long trusted is with me now. The dark valley is lighted up by His smile."
A young man who had recently found Jesus was dying. A friend who stood near him asked, "Is it dark?"
"No, no," he exclaimed, "it's light, it's light, it's all light!" And in the joy which this light gives, he entered into heaven.
"Mine eyes have seen Thy salvation, which Thou hast prepared before the face of all people; a light to lighten the Gentiles, and the glory of Thy people Israel." Luke 2:30-3230For mine eyes have seen thy salvation, 31Which thou hast prepared before the face of all people; 32A light to lighten the Gentiles, and the glory of thy people Israel. (Luke 2:30‑32).
