The darkness of death can turn into light through Christ the Prince of Peace.

A Scottish Paraphrase
  1. The race that long in darkness pin'd
    have seen a glorious light;
    The people dwell in day, who dwelt
    in death's surrounding night.
  1. To hail thy rise, thou better Sun!
    the gath'ring nations come,
    Joyous, as when the reapers bear
    the harvest treasures home.
  1. To us a Child of hope is born;
    to us a Son is giv'n;
    Him shall the tribes of earth obey,
    him all the hosts of heav'n
  1. His name shall be the Prince of Peace,
    for evermore ador'd,
    The Wonderful, the Counsellor,
    the great and mighty Lord.
  1. His pow'r increasing still shall spread,
    his reign no end shall know;
    Justice shall guard his throne above,
    and peace abound below.
