about

One of the first songs I ever wrote, but this is the first time recording it. Wrote it to sing with my sister in 2002, and she lends her voice to this recording.

lyrics

I wake to darkness
I see nothing though my eyes are open
My heart, aware, but unimpressed
Unable to hear the Word you've spoken
The darkness wants to own me
I almost want that too
My heart, aware, but busy
As the Light is burning from you

In the darkness there is nothing
And the Light is like a dream
As I turn my heart is racing
To glimpse a Light supreme

Arise and shine for your light has come
The glory of God has risen
For behold darkness shall cover the earth
But the Lord shall rise upon you
And his glory will be seen among you

The darkness is no equal
For the Light of life, the word made flesh
My heart, aware, but feeble
Can hardly take in Light so fresh
The dark in me protests the Light
But the Light shines brighter still
My heart, aware, awoken from its night
Such divine, irrational thrill

In the darkness there is nothing
And the Light is like a dream
As I turn my heart is racing
To glimpse a Light supreme

Arise and shine for your light has come
The glory of God has risen
For behold darkness shall cover the earth
But the Lord shall rise upon you

Arise and shine for your light has come
The glory of God has risen
For behold darkness shall cover the earth
But the Lord shall rise upon you
And his glory will be seen among you

The Light shines in the darkness and
The darkness cannot overcome

The Light shines in the darkness and
The darkness cannot overcome

The Light shines in the darkness and
The darkness cannot overcome

The Light shines in the darkness and
The darkness cannot overcome

Arise and shine for your light has come
The glory of God has risen
For behold darkness shall cover the earth
But the Lord shall rise upon you

Arise and shine for your light has come
The glory of God has risen
For behold darkness shall cover the earth
But the Lord shall rise upon you
And his glory will be seen among you
Will be seen among you
Will be seen among you
