V1 Colours of day dawn into the mind The day has begun, the night is behind Go down in the city, on into the streets And let's give the message to the people we meet | I wrote this song just before the 5 London Festivals of light in the early 70's. The song was adopted as the theme for the festivals and since then has been included in a number of hymnals and publications and is sung worldwide. |

Ch So light up the fire and let the flame burn Open the door, let Jesus return Take seeds of His Spirit, let the fruit grow Tell the people of Jesus, let His love show | |
|
V2 Go through the park, on into the town The sun still shines on, it never goes down The light of the world has risen again The people in darkness are needing our Friend | |
|
V3 Open your eyes, look into the sky The darkness has come, the sun came to die The evening draws on, the sun disappears But Jesus is living, His Spirit is near |
