Advent

Break forth like the rising sun I pray…

With Heaven’s glory dawns this day

To pierce our darkness with your light

Deliver us by the power of your might!

The fiery advent of God’s grace

Will drive the darkness from this place

And fill the earth with the glorious glow

Of hearts made hearths His flame to show

Chorus

Oh glory come to fill our night

We glory in celestial light

Christ comes to make the darkness bright

Oh come to us dear Christmas Light

Oh light the darknes cannot dim

Shine forth from the very face of him

Whose righteous glory is displayed

In radience that shall never fade!

So may we walk in your bright path

And so be saved from fiery wrath

All who’re found within this light

That conquers death and makes us right

Chorus

Oh glory come to fill our night

We glory in celestial light

Christ comes to make the darkness bright

Oh come to us dear Christmas Light
