Nighttime has gone when all was still
Moon shone the way as we climbed the hill
When we arrived, we raised our hands
Now the dawn has come, now we understand

The sun does rise in the eastern sky
And love soon comes watch over I

The road was long, yes, we travelled far
Thought long dark nights without guiding star
Visions of an angel came along the way
Told us: "don't be fearful for there comes a brighter day"

The journey's been an epic
Sometimes I've been so down
Stranded in a lonely bar the other side of town
Yes, we've travelled day and night for many a poor mile
Now it all makes sense as we see the morning smile

The sun does rise in the eastern sky
And love soon comes watch over I

The sun does rise in the eastern sky
And love soon comes watch over I
