“A day without the sun is like you know, night”

“Sun of Righteousness, arise,
Triumph o'er the shades of night”
"Sun of Righteousness, Arise", a morning hymn, reported in Dictionary of Burning Words of Brilliant Writers (1895) by Josiah Hotchkiss Gilbert, p. 77.
Context: Christ whose glory fills the skies,
Christ, the true, the only light,
Sun of Righteousness, arise,
Triumph o'er the shades of night;
Day-spring from on high, be near,
Day-star in my heart appear.

“… and the night is so deep and dark that I wonder if the sun will ever come up.”

“We turn the Wheel to bring the light. We call the sun from the womb of night. Blessed Be!”
The Spiral Dance: A Rebirth of the Ancient Religion of the Goddess (1979)
Context: This is the stillness behind motion, when time itself stops; the center is also the circumference of all. We are awake in the night. We turn the Wheel to bring the light. We call the sun from the womb of night. Blessed Be!

“The time for work is while the sun's light shines,
but every living thing finds peace at night.”
Tempo è da travagliar mentre il sol dura;
Ma nella notte ogni animale ha pace.
