Verse 1:
There's a land full of glory,
in a place where there is no night.
And in that holy city
burns the beacon of everlasting light.
The light that keeps reaching
to the people of every land
A love that is longing
to fill the heart of every man...
(Refrain)
Shine down your light on me.
Let the people see
that in your presence darkness flees.
Father of light, Shine Down on me:

Verse 2:
There's no sun in that city.
The father's throne is it's only light.
The lamp of salvation;
the hope that is always glowing bright
It scatters the darkenss,
swept away by his mightly hand.
Now all the nations can worship,
sing the song of that glorious land.
