“E’en so, Lord Jesus, quickly come, and night shall be no more. They need no light nor lamp nor sun, for Christ shall be their ALL.”

From a choir anthem we sang in college 45 years ago. It is more beautiful now than when I was young.

It is beautiful. I always interpret that passage to mean that we'll be in a different spiritual realm with Christ so we won't need a lamp or the sun...those being physical objects needed for physical things.
