Rise and Shine (Aycock)

lyricist: Jarrette Aycock, 1926
Composer: Dell Aycock

When our Lord re­turns to take us

To our man­sions in the sky

We shall rise and shine;

We shall rise to life eter­nal

Nevermore to sin or die.

We shall rise and shine.

We shall rise

we shall shine

We shall shine with Him in glo­ry by and by;

When the bonds of death are brok­en

We shall meet Him in the sky;

We shall rise and shine.

Prison bars of death can’t hold us

When our Sav­ior comes again

We shall rise and shine

From the grave we’ll rise tri­umph­ant

And with Christ we’ll meet and reign

We shall rise and shine.

With our loved ones gone be­fore us

We’ll as­sem­ble ’round the throne

Where we’ll shine and shine.

There we’ll shout and praise our Sav­ior

Who re­deemed us for His own.

We shall shine and shine.
