1 Arise! Shine, for your light has come,the glory of the Lord has dawned upon you.
2 Though darkness covers the earth,and thick clouds, the peoples,Upon you the Lord will dawn,and over you his glory will be seen.
3 Nations shall walk by your light,kings by the radiance of your dawning.
4 Raise your eyes and look about;they all gather and come to you—Your sons from afar,your daughters in the arms of their nurses.
