Songtext von Arise

Arise, shine For your light has come And the glory of the Lord Rises upon you Darkness covers the earth Thick haze is over the peoples But the Lord rises upon you And his glory appears over you Nations will come to your light Kings to the brightness of your dawn Pass through, pass through the gates! Prepare the way for the people Build up, build up the highway! Remove the stones Raise a banner for the nations Lift up your eyes And look about you Your sons and daughters Come to you from afar The wealth of the seas Will be brought to you To you the riches Of the nations will come Then you will look and be radiant Your heart will throb and swell with joy Pass through, pass through the gates! Prepare the way for the people Build up, build up the highway! Remove the stones Raise a banner for the nations Awake, awake, O Zion Clothe yourself with strength Put on your garments of splendor Shake off your dust Rise up, sit enthroned Jerusalem, the holy city Pass through, pass through the gates! Prepare the way for the people Build up, build up the highway! Remove the stones Raise a banner for the nations [Isaiah 52, 60 & 62]
