LYRICS/TESTO:
City of God
Awake from your slumber, arise from your sleep
A new day is dawning for all those who weep
The people in darkness have seen a great light
The Lord of our longing has conquered the night
Let us build the city of God
May our tears be turned into dancing
For the Lord, our light and our love
Has turned the night into day
We’re sons of the morning, we are daughters of day
The one who has loved us has brightened our way
Let us build the city of God
May our tears be turned into dancing!
For the Lord, our light and our love
Has turned the night into day
God is light, In him there is no darkness
Let us walk in his light, his children one and all
Oh comfort my people, make gentle your words
Proclaim to my city, the day of her birth
Let us build the city of God
May our tears be turned into dancing
For the Lord, our light and our love
Has turned the night into day
