Arise, shine;
for your light has come,
and the glory of the Lord has risen upon you.
For darkness shall cover the earth,
and thick darkness the peoples;
but the Lord will arise upon you,
and his glory will appear over you.
Nations shall come to your light,
and kings to the brightness of your dawn.
and the glory of the Lord has risen upon you.
For darkness shall cover the earth,
and thick darkness the peoples;
but the Lord will arise upon you,
and his glory will appear over you.
Nations shall come to your light,
and kings to the brightness of your dawn.
Arise! Shine!
For your light has come.
O Lord, in Jesus Christ we see the light-
the light of life,
the light of hope,
the light of peace,
the light of forgiveness,
the light that shines in the darkness
and the darkness does not understand it,
the darkness does not overcome it,
the darkness will not overcome it,
the darkness CANNOT overcome it.
And the Light calls to us,
Invites us,
Beckons us,
Implores us,
Shouts to us,
COMMANDS us - -
arise. shine. your light has come.
Arise. Shine Your light has come.
Arise! Shine! Your light has come!
ARISE! SHINE! YOUR LIGHT HAS COME!
What are you waiting for...
