Lord we have seen the rising sun,
Awakening the early dawn,
And we’re rising up to give You praise.
Lord we have seen the stars and moon,
See how they shine, they shine for You.
And You’re calling us to do the same,
So we rise up with a song,
And we rise up with a cry,
And we’re giving You our lives.

We will shine like stars in the universe,
Holding out Your truth in the darkest place.
We’ll be living for Your glory,
Jesus we’ll be living for Your glory.

We will burn so bright with Your praise, oh, God,
And declare Your light to this broken world.
We’ll be living for Your glory,
Jesus, we’ll be living for Your glory.
Like the sun so radiantly, sending light for all to see,
Let Your Holy Church arise.
Exploding into life like a supernova’s light,
Set Your Holy Church on fire, we will shine.

So we rise up with a song, and we rise up with a cry.
And we’re giving You our lives, Jesus, we will shine!
