Psalm 43:3

When I read Psalm 43 in German, I noticed that, in a way, verse 3 anticipates the first part of John 1.
Sende dein Licht und deine Wahrheit, daß sie mich leiten und bringen zu deinem heiligen Berg und zu deiner Wohnung
Send out your light and your truth; let them lead me; let them bring me to your holy hill and to your dwelling! [ESV]
This request begins to be fulfilled in John 1, particularly in verse 9, where light and truth are mentioned together:  "The true light, which enlightens everyone, was coming into the world."
