If we stand and go
walking with our Savior
leaving our cares
at the altar of the cross
If we remember our clay
remaining salt of the earth
carrying his light ever
out into the world
Your light shall rise
up onto a hill
like a city fortress
a lamp on a lampstand
Shining bright
cutting through the darkness
offering love to all
to the ends of the earth
