Awake, awake, oh sleeper
Arise, shine, for your light has come
Awake, awake, oh sleeper
The glory of the lord is upon you
Verse 1:
Beautiful bride, city on a hill
See my army in the valley sleeping still
Sons and daughters slumber in the light
The night is gone, the day has come, it’s time to prophesy
Say to zion, my anointed ones
“rise to the glory, grow in the light of the son”
Chorus:
Arise, arise, shine…daughter of zion
Arise, arise and shine (2x)
Verse 2:
Kings and priests, whose vision is gone
You shall rise to the brightness of the dawn
Great is the darkness, greater is i am
Shake off the dust, come with us, it’s time to sing again
Say to zion, “let the church arise”
Come together, beautiful body of christ
Bridge:
Sound the alarm, tell everybody it’s time to wake up (repeat)
