Arise, Your Light Has Come

1     Arise, your light has come!
        The Spirit's call obey;
        show forth the glory of your God
        which shines on you today.
 
2     Arise, your light has come!
        Fling wide the prison door;
        proclaim the captive's liberty,
        good tidings to the poor.
 
3     Arise, your light has come!
        All you in sorrow born,
        bind up the brokenhearted ones
        and comfort those who mourn.
 
4     Arise, your light has come!
        The mountains burst in song!
        Rise up like eagles on the wing,
        God's pow'r will make us strong.
