The Bright Array ‎#176

176. Arise and Shine

1 Arise and hail the day,
Put on thy strength, O Zion;
Go forth to meet the fray,
The battle-hour is come.

Refrain:
Arise, arise and shine,
Behold, the light is beaming;
The glory, all divine,
Around thy path is streaming;
Arise, arise and shine
For Him whose love has won thee;
Behold, the glory of the Lord is risen upon thee

2 Fear not to smite the foe,
Lift up the head, O Zion;
For men and angels know
The testing-time is come. [Refrain]

3 The Lord is on thy side,
Rejoice in Him, O Zion;
Proclaim it far and wide,
The triumph day is come. [Refrain]
