John Michael Talbot
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
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!
We are sons of the morning
We are daughters of day
The one who has loved us
Has brightened our way
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!
Have seen a great light
The Lord of our longing
Has conquered the night
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!
We are sons of the morning
We are daughters of day
The one who has loved us
Has brightened our way
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!
God is light
In him there is no darkness
Let us walk in his light
His children, one and all
O comfort my people
Make gentle your words
Proclaim to my City
The day of her birth
For the lord, our light and our love
Has turned the night into day!"
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!
May our tears be turned into dancing!
For the lord, our light and our love
Has turned the night into day!

God invites us to have faith in dark times. God's gifts are cost free. We accept them with our hearts--not with what's in our wallets. Faith, not religion, is our security blanket.
"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!"
