Once darkness, we did walk in hate,
Once darkness, we did walk in hate,
Far from Your holy flame.
Light quelled sin's gloom; our needs You sate,
Born of Your radiant name,
Not merely children of the day,
But light itself—we rise!
Awake, o sleeper, from the dead:
Light shines! Light makes us Christ!

True Life in us, unconquerable,
True Life in us, unconquerable,
Each blow Christ can endure;
No storm, no hell, no tempter's pull
Can shake Life's power pure.
Our mortal life, Light's tests expose,
Its frailty laid so bare!
Our strength dissolves, but Christ bestows
A life beyond death's snare.

As light reveals, Your life supplies,

Our sight, restored and clear!
Through You, we walk, transformed in grace,
Your glory drawing near!

Eph. 5:14 Therefore He says, Awake, sleeper, and arise from the dead, and Christ will shine on you.
“First, we must WANT the shining… whether we are willing to accept and receive is the first condition of our being enlightened…Second, we should OPEN ourselves to the Lord…If we want to receive the shining, we must open ourselves to the Lord and, from deep within, release ourselves, putting ourselves before the Lord without a bit of reservation or holding back…Third, we should put a STOP to ourselves…put a stop to our views, our ways of looking at things, our feelings, opinions and words, etc…. Fourth, we should NOT DISPUTE with the light… whenever we dispute with the light, the light is withdrawn. ” (Witness Lee: The Knowledge of Life)
