Michael McLean - Arise and Shine Forth (Pop) lyrics
He did not come in glory when He first came to earth And most the world ignored His humble birth. But the heavens were singing in celestial harmonies, And a star guided some souls to their knees; Those with ears to hear and eyes to see. And the miracles followed, but the skeptics believed They were lies spread by those who'd been deceived. With their appetite for power, they mocked every word He said, While the ones truly hungering He fed; Those who hungered after righteousness he fed. And the light that He gave was to lift and to save And the burdens that He came to bear are the ones we can't carry and need to share I give thanks for His sweetness; I have faith in His power, And I know He'll strive with me every hour. For He suffered in darkness, kneeling in Gethsemane, So the light of His love could shine on me; So the light of His love could shine through me. Arise! Sisters, arise! Arise and shine forth, let us add to the flame That burns brightly in hearts that bear His name. And the torch that's a standard for the nations all to see Is the light of the world shining through me. We are standing for something, prayerful in all things, comforting those that mourn. We are gathering Zion, we can rely on this refuge from the storm We are strengthened on every side in the light we cannot hide We are united, spirits ignited, feeling the fire inside. Arise and shine forth, and we'll add to the flame That burns brightly in hearts that bear His name. And this torch that's a standard for the nations all to see Is the light of the world that shines in you and me; It's the light of the world shining through me! |
