Vocal Gems ‎#17

17. Shine, O Let it Shine

1 The world is lost in darkness and it cannot see,
O shine, O shine;
Go tell about the Savior how He died for thee,
O shine O let it shine.

Refrain:
We walk and talk with Jesus all along this pilgrim way,
O shine, O shine,
Till He comes in pow'r and glory on the resurrection day;
O shine, O let it shine.

2 Hold high the cross of Jesus to a dying world,
O shine, O chine;
Lift high His royal banner let it be unfurled,
O shine, O let it shine. [Refrain]

3 When work on earth is ended you can live with me,
O shine O shine;
A home of many mansions there awhile for thee,
O shine, O let it shine. [Refrain]

4 Come sinner now repentant at His feet and fall,
O shine, O shine;
He's ready now your sins to pardon one and all,
O shine, O let it shine.
