arise and shine~

Arise,
shine,
for your light has dawned;
The Presence of the Lord has shone upon you!


Behold!
Darkness shall cover the earth,
And thick clouds the peoples;

But upon you the Lord will shine,
And His Presence be seen over you.
And nations shall walk by your light,
Kings, by your shining radiance.

Raise your eyes and look about:
They have all gathered and come to you.

~Isaiah 60:1-3
