Out of darkness into light
Jesus calls the sons of night;
Out of midnight into day
Jesus bids us come away.

Refrain

Arise and shine!
Thy light is come;
The glory of the Lord
Is risen upon our gloom.
Arise and shine!
Thy light is come,
The glory of the Lord
Is risen upon our gloom.

From the prison house of sin,
From the power without, within,
From this mortal weariness,
Jesus calls to joy and peace.

Refrain

From this world’s alluring snares,
From its perils and its cares;
From its vanity and strife,
Jesus beckons us to life.

Refrain

From the vanity of youth
Into rest and love and truth,
Into joy that never palls,
Jesus now in mercy calls.
