Every secret, every shame
Every fear, every pain
Live inside the dark
But that's who we are
We are children of the day.So wake up sleeper
Lift your head
We were meant for more than this
Fight the shadows, conquer death
Make the most of time we have left.We are the light of the world
We are the city on the hill
We are the light of the world
We gotta, we gotta
We gotta let the light shine.Let the light shine
Let the light shine.We are called to spread the news
Tell the world the simple truth
Jesus came to save
There's freedom in his name
So let it all breakthrough.We are the light, we are the light
We are the light
To let your light shine brighter.We are the light, we are the light
We are the light, Jesus.We are the light, we are the light
We are the light
We will lift you high and
Shine, shine, shine.We gotta shine, we gotta shine
Let the light shine
Let the light shine.
