City of God
Daniel L. Schutte – City of God
Lyrics
Verse 1 Awake from your slumber! Arise from your sleep! A new day is dawning for all those who weep The people in darkness have seen a great light The Lord of our longing has conquered the night Chorus Let us build the city of God May our tears be turned into dancing! For the Lord, our light and our love Has turned the night into day! Verse 2 We are sons of the morning; we are daughters of day The One who has loved us has brightened our way Chorus Let us build the city of God May our tears be turned into dancing! For the Lord, our light and our love Has turned the night into day! Verse 3 God is light; in him there is no darkness Let us walk in his light, his children, one and all Bridge O comfort My people; make gentle your words Proclaim to My city the day of her birth Chorus Let us build the city of God May our tears be turned into dancing! For the Lord, our light and our love Has turned the night into day!
