Jesus Bids Us Shine
Appears in 270 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Jesus bids us shine,
With a clear, pure light,
Like a little candle
Burning in the night;
In this world of darkness,
We must shine,
You in your small corner,
And I in mine.
2 Jesus bids us shine,
First of all for Him;
Well He sees and knows it
If our light is dim;
He looks down from heaven,
Sees us shine,
You in your small corner,
And I in mine.
3 Jesus bids us shine,
Then, for all around,
Many kinds of darkness
In this world abound -
Sin, and want, and sorrow:
We must shine,
You in your small corner,
And I in mine.
4 Jesus bids us shine,
As we work for Him,
Bringing those that wander
From the paths of sin;
He will ever help us,
If we shine,
You in your small corner,
And I in mine.

Jesus Bids Us Shine
Author: Susan Warner, 1819-1885 Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal (Rev. ed.) #592 (1990) Meter: 5.5.6.5.6.4.6.4 Lyrics: 1 Jesus bids us shine with a pure, clear light,
like a little candle burning in the night.
In this world of darkness so let us shine -
you in your small corner, and I in mine.

well he sees and knows it, if our light grows dim.
He looks down from heaven to see us shine -
you in your small corner, and I in mine.

many kinds of darkness in the world are found;
sin and want and sorrow; so we must shine -
you in your small corner, and I in mine.
