Text: | A Beacon Light for Jesus |
Author: | Haldor Lillenas |
Tune: | [Out upon life’s ocean many souls adrift] |
Composer: | Haldor Lillenas |
1 Out upon life’s ocean many souls adrift,
Tempest tossed upon the raging sea,
Cannot see the many shoals and hidden rocks—
A beacon light for Jesus I would be.
Refrain:
A beacon light for Jesus I would ever be,
Sending out a warning light across the sea;
Faithfully shining on,
Until the night is gone,
A beacon light for Jesus I would be.
2 Many are the dangers on life’s rugged shore,
Strong the tempest rages, wild and free;
Many need a light to safely guide them home,
A beacon light for Jesus I would be. [Refrain]
3 I would not my light beneath a bushel hide,
I will place it where the lost can see,
That perhaps a ship in danger it may guide—
A beacon light for Jesus I would be. [Refrain]
