city of god

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.1

Let us build the city of god! May our tears be turned in to dancing! For the lord, our light and our love, has turned the night into day!2

We are sons of morning, we are daughters of day. The one who has loved us, has brightened our way. The lord of all kindness has called us to be a light for his people, and to set theier hearts free3

Let us build the city of god! May our tears be turned in to dancing! For the lord, our light and our love, has turned the night into day!4
