Arise, shine out, stand up and be counted
The glory of the Lord is upon you!
Stand tall in the world, there's a job here to be done
And it's to bring all people to the Lord
How can you claim to believe,
when you hide your face from him?
What you believe is what your life is
How can you pretend? When it's so easy to see (Alleluia!)
Arise, shine out, stand up and be counted
The glory of the Lord is upon you!
Stand tall in the world, there's a job here to be done
And it's to bring all people to the Lord
Forget about yourself and your pride
It's hard to give without God at your side
Ask the Lord if he will see you through and show you what to do
When it's so easy to see (Alleluia!)
Arise, shine out, stand up and be counted
The glory of the Lord is upon you!
Stand tall in the world, there's a job here to be done
And it's to bring all people to the Lord
We were lost and going astray,
In need of one to show us the way
The Lord he came and died for us, so that we might be free
And it's so easy to see (Alleluia!)
Arise, shine out, stand up and be counted
The glory of the Lord is upon you!
Stand tall in the world, there's a job here to be done
And it's to bring all people to the Lord
Arise, shine out, stand up and be counted
The glory of the Lord is upon you!
Stand tall in the world, there's a job here to be done
And it's to bring all people to the Lord
