Love and the Outcome's song 'City of God' is an uplifting anthem about believers being the city of God, called to shine God's love openly. The lyrics emphasize that as God's children, we are loved and should let that love be visible to the world, like torches or stars. The song celebrates diversity, mentioning different skin colors as precious in God's sight, and encourages Christians to lead others to God through their actions. It's a message of identity, purpose, and evangelism, rooted in the idea that God's love is a light that cannot be hidden.

We are Your daughters
We are Your sons
You our Father
We are so loved
Spark up a holy fire
Open our eyes
To see how to be a love
The world can't deny
We are the city
The city of God
And we can't keep it secret
Your love is the light
We will shine
We will shine
We're going public
Like torches in the night
Bringing out the God colors
Just like the northern lights
We're red, yellow, black and white
So precious in Your sight
We are the city
The city of God
And we can't keep it secret
Your love is the light
We will shine
We will shine
We will shine
Bright as the stars at night
We will shine
Holding Your light up high
We will shine
Leading the way to
The city of God
We're red, yellow, black and white
So precious in Your sight
We are the city
The city of God
And we can't keep it secret
Your love is the light
We are the city
The city of God
And we can't keep it secret
Your love is the light
We will shine
We will shine
Your love is the light
Your love is the light
We will shine
