I think I know this one!

"Arise, Africa, arise and shine" is a popular African hymn, also known as "Arise, Your Light Has Come". The song was written by Kenyan pastor and musician, Rev. Charles N. Tindimugaya, in the 1970s. The hymn has since become a beloved anthem across Africa and is often sung during worship services, conferences, and other gatherings.

The song's lyrics are a call to Africans to rise up and shine, to spread the light of Christ and to overcome the challenges they face. The song is a powerful expression of hope, faith, and resilience, and its message continues to inspire and uplift people across the continent.

Here are the lyrics:

Arise, Africa, arise and shine Your light has come, let it shine Let Africa's voice be heard In the darkness, let it shine

Arise, Africa, arise and shine Your light has come, let it shine Let Africa's voice be heard In the darkness, let it shine

Arise, Africa, arise and shine Your light has come, let it shine Let Africa's voice be heard In the darkness, let it shine
