[Verse 1]
You're my faithful friend
When I feel like I'm on my own
You remind my heart
It's darkest right before the dawn
[Chorus]
'Cause even in the dead of night
When darkness is on every side
You're telling me to lift my eyes
It's gonna be alright, alright
And suddenly a light will shine
As we're waiting for the morning light
As steady as a new sunrise
It's gonna be alright, alright
[Verse 2]
Yeah, it's hard sometimes
But I know how the story ends
Although this night is long
On Your faithfulness I can depend
[Chorus]
'Cause even in the dead of night
When darkness is on every side
You're telling me to lift my eyes
It's gonna be alright, alright
Suddenly a light will shine
As we're waiting for the morning light
As steady as a new sunrise
It's gonna be alright, alright
[Outro]
Arise (Arise, arise)
And shine (And shine, and shine)
Arise (Arise, arise)
And shine (And shine, and shine)
