Hvis Lyset Tar Oss (Norwegian for If the Light Takes Us) is the fourth release by the Norwegian black metal artist Burzum. It was recorded in September 1992, but not released until May 1994. The album cover features a drawing by 19th century artist Theodor Kittelsen entitled Fattigmannen (The Pauper).

Promotional copies sent around to fanzines had a slightly different tracklisting. The song "Et Hvitt Lys Over Skogen" was replaced by "Tomhet" on the final release.
