The Armor of Light

For salvation is nearer now, we understand, 

than when we first believed. 

The day of salvation soon is at hand

And judgment will soon be received

So do not waste time on temporal things 

They remind how time takes it’s flight 

So shelter beneath our sovereign’s wings

As we walk in eternity’s light

Chorus

The night is nearly over; the day is almost here. 

So let us put aside the deeds of darkness 

and put on the armor of light. 

The night is nearly over; the day is almost here. 

So let us put aside the deeds of darkness 

and put on the armor of light. 

Clothe yourselves in the Lord and pray

That in Christ you will be found

the day of salvation is nearer today

And soon we will hear the trumpet’s sound

The darkness produces  fruitless deeds

The light exposes  their shame

The day will manifest  the tares and the weeds

That shall be devoured by the flames 

The night is nearly over; the day is almost here. 

So let us put aside the deeds of darkness 

and put on the armor of light. 

The night is nearly over; the day is almost here. 

So let us put aside the deeds of darkness 

and put on the armor of light.
