Once we were in darkness;

Disobediant, unwise.

 

Dead to Life in Abundance;

Exchanging Truth for lies.

 

Then we heard of Jesus:

His love, His truth, His might!

And by the gospel of the Glory of Christ,

Now we walk as Children of the Light!

 

    Wake up, O Sleeper!

    Rise from the dead!

    And Christ will shine upon you!

    See how the darkness has fled!

 

"Let light shine out of the darkness,"

This is what God said.

Jesus, Messiah is the Light of the World!

We learned about Him from the bible we read!

 

    Wake up, O Sleeper!

    Rise from the dead!

    And Christ will shine upon you!

    See how the darkness has fled!

 

We learned about Him from the bible we read!

And we're still reading.

And we're still walking by the Light of His Word.

And He's still shining down upon us!
