SHINE

 To go along with verse posted on facebook page this morning:  II Peter 1:19

Shine

composed by Judy Janowski

February 14, 2008

(to the tune of Born Free)


Refrain:

Always be loving, patient, and kind

for God’s purpose for you is to shine

as ambassadors in the family of faith

always illuminating God’s truth.

God’s purpose for you from your birth

is to shine like stars in the universe

to be a shining light in the darkness

so be a light and shine, shine forth.


Shine in the midst of your troubles

proclaiming that God is able.

Others will see your example

for when life seems to be impossible

they need a light that shines forth

showing them troubles have worth,

giving hope in their heartache,

bringing God’s peace to their hearts.


Refrain


Shine in your words, deeds, and actions

for others you’ll be attracting

as you shine bright with God’s light

always proclaiming what’s right,

offering encouragement

to those you have met

with loving understanding and

often giving a helping hand.


Refrain


Others will see your passion

when as a star you do shine -

so shine bright as the stars

today right where you are.

God’s purpose for you from your birth

is to shine like stars in the universe,

to be a shining light in the darkness

so be a light and shine, shine forth.


...shine like stars in the universe...

Philippians 2:15 (NIV)
