It was in the night
When you created life
It was in the night
When you spoke out
"Let there be light"
And there was light
It was in the night
That hell began the fight
It was in the night
When you resolved to make it right
You made it right
Oh the night has come
Thousands of times
Yet you light it up
With thousands of stars
And we can never count them all
You are shining bright in the middle of the night
It was in the night
You came in such small form
It was in the night
That all of heaven sang
"He is born"
And you were born
It was in the night
You stole away to pray
It was in the night
When you requested another way
It was the only way
Oh the night has come
Thousands of times
Yet you light it up
With thousands of stars
And we can never count them all
You are shining bright in the middle of the night
Oh the night has come
Thousands of times
Yet you light it up
With thousands of stars
And we can never count them all
You are shining bright in the middle of the night
The night may come and come again
But we are secure in this
You are the rising sun
You are the rising sun
The night may come and come again
But we are secure in this
You are the rising sun
You are the rising sun
The night may come and come again
But we are secure in this
You are the rising sun
You are the rising sun
The night may come and come again
But we are secure in this
You are the rising sun
It was in the night
You gave your life away
It was in the night
When nail-struck hands
Bore my every shame
But it was in the morning
That death would recognize
That he amounts to nothing
And love is on the rise
It was in the morning
That hell was made to see
That you are King forever
And forever you are King
Oh the night has come
Thousands of times
Yet you light it up
With thousands of stars
And we can never count them all
You are shining bright in the middle of the night
Oh the night has come
Thousands of times
Yet you light it up
Every time
And you are making all things right
You are shining bright in the middle of the night
The night may come and come again
But we are secure in this
You are the rising sun
You are the rising sun
The night may come and come again
But we are secure in this
You are the rising sun
You are the rising sun
