This is (obviously) the title track of John Burland‘s album Arise. It is another collaboration with Gary Pinto, and is in a P&W mode, yet could be great for the Easter season or for Baptism and Confirmation.
The sheet music costs only $A15 for the whole collection and can be purchased at his website.
For assembly use I’d bring this down from E to D at least.
My backing is a little different to Burland’s arrangement:
Arise, arise see the glory of the Lord.
Arise, arise for the light of the world.
1 The Light has come to us shining bright,
and the glory of the Lord lights up the night.
Arise, behold the Lord has come us,
Arise and know the glory of the Lord.Chorus
Arise, arise see the glory of the Lord,
Arise, arise for the light of the world.Arise, arise see the glory of the Lord
Arise, arise for the light of the world.
2 Faith has made you whole precious child,
God’s favour is upon the meek and mild.
A witness to God’s presence you will be,
to a world that’s crying out for love and mercy.© 2020 John Burland /Gary Pinto. Published by Ovation Music Services. All rights reserved.

John Burland has pursued many fruitful collaborations in his music and this song is great one with the very impressive Gen Bryant. It is from Burland’s collection, Arise, which is available as sheet music from his site for $A15.
It is a sung prayer that would find a place at school retreats. The text is based on Psalm 3:3. I don’t even have to change the key to sing it this time.
I’ll get sick of saying it, but this is how you promote your music – You-tube clips, including backings, text available on the site for Powerpoints, licencing options for schools, reasonably priced downloadable sheet music … He is thinking liking a time poor, flustered teacher, not a confident musician who can sight read.
BIAB likes electronica so that’s how I’ve done my backing, but I’m sure minimal backing with guitar or piano in a retreat would work great too:
I come to you broken, broken and alone,
Lost, going nowhere, afraid of the unknown.
In the silence of the darkness,
In the stillness of my heart,
There’s a hope that lies within us,
and a voice that calls me home.
ChorusLift me up, only you can take me higher,
Lift me up for I am Yours.
Lift me up, it’s you that I desire,
Lift me up, lift me up,
For I am Yours.
I come to you searching, searching for a home,
A place to dwell in the mystery, without the shadows of my shame
To your light I will surrender,
to the glory of Your name.
There’s a voice that I remember,
and a love that leads me home.

I’m looking at John Burland‘s album, Awake. You can buy the whole collection of sheet music for just $A15 at his site.
It is a rather reflective praise and worship song, so suitable for when the roof does not require lifting and it would slot neatly as a reflection in liturgies. The text is based in John 8:20. This time the words and music are a collaboration of Burland and John Pinto. Please look at his music clips, instrumental and commentary below. His website also provides access to his lyrics to assist with Powerpoints etc. This is immensely useful for teachers and parish liturgists alike.
For parish purposes I would drop this at least from the key of D to C, maybe more.
I made a conventional sensible backing on BIAB:
I also made one that is less useful but more fun.
Chorus
Jesus Light of the world,
Jesus Light of the world,
You gave your life to set us free
now the heavens are open wide.Jesus Light of the world,
Jesus Light of the world,
You died for us so we could be
in the arms of our loving God.
OOO Hear the angels,
OOO Praise your name.
Walking amongst us to show all people the way,
bringing your hope and love to the thief and saint.
Jesus shine for us to light the darkest days,
for You are with us as we acclaim.
OOO Hear the angels,
OOO Praise your name.
Chorus
OOO Hear the angels,
OOO Praise your name.
OOO Hear the angels,
OOO Praise your name.
By your cross on Calvary every age will see,
the sacrifice, your love for us, the Promise came to be.

OOO Praise your name.
