We Are The Light Lyrics:
Verse 1
Raise a banner, raise it up high to ev'ry people under the sky
Prepare the way for them to come in
Build a highway, open the gates
Remove the stones that stand in the way
Humble your hearts and turn from every sin
All you watchmen lift up your cry
Through the day and into the night
The Lord on whom you call will surely come
Chorus
We are His bride, we are His people
A crown in the hand of the Lord, His true delight
We are the light, a city on a hill
So hold out this word of hope and let your light shine
We are the light
Verse 2
For Zion's sake I will not rest, I will restore Jerusalem
Until she shines like the morning sun
And then all kings will see her glory
A blazing torch pure and holy
Her new name, the praise of all the earth
No more ignored, no longer despise
He won't forsake His precious bride
The Lord as given His word, and He does not lie
Raise a banner, raise it up high to ev'ry people under the sky
Prepare the way for them to come in
Build a highway, open the gates
Remove the stones that stand in the way
Humble your hearts and turn from every sin
All you watchmen lift up your cry
Through the day and into the night
The Lord on whom you call will surely come

We are His bride, we are His people
A crown in the hand of the Lord, His true delight
We are the light, a city on a hill
So hold out this word of hope and let your light shine

And then all kings will see her glory
A blazing torch pure and holy
Her new name, the praise of all the earth
No more ignored, no longer despise
He won't forsake His precious bride
The Lord as given His word, and He does not lie
