The Gospel Chorus ‎#58

58. Would You Shine for Jesus?

1 Would you shine for Jesus?
Let His love impart
Ardor to your actions,
Comfort to your heart;
With your soul illumined
By the Spirit’s glow,
You will be a beacon
In this world of woe.

Refrain:
Shining for Jesus,
Bringing light divine
To the sad and erring,
Thus for Jesus shine;
Shining for Jesus,
Bringing light divine
To the sad and erring,
Thus for Jesus shine.

2 Would you shine for Jesus
’Mid the careless throng?
Imitate His graces
AS you pass along;
Make no weak surrender
To the coarse and vile;
Keep your tongue from evil,
And your lips from guile. [Refrain]

3 Would you shine for Jesus
As a mirror true?
Image forth His goodness
As revealed in you.
If you thus reflect Him
Till this life is o’er,
You will in His kingdom
Shine forevermore. [Refrain]
