Christ is the shining city on the hill


Our hope is not in the world
in nothing made by human hands
only in Christ Jesus,
in our risen Savior;
Christ is the hope of mankind
the light to the nations.

Not in America, not in Israel
not in a nation state
no matter how democratic;
Christ is the shining city
the light on the hill,
our one hope for salvation.
