HI! In John 8:12, Jesus makes this statement, “I am the light of the world. He who follows Me shall not walk in darkness, but have the light of life.” He is light and it overpowers the darkness. The darkness hates the light and tried to put out the light, but the light was resurrected by God and shines ever brighter in those who believe. The church carries the light of Jesus into the dark world.
Shine, Jesus, Shine was written by Graham Kendrick in 1987. Here are the lyrics:
Lord, the light of Your love is shining,
in the midst of the darkness, shining.
Jesus, Light of the world, shine upon us.
Set us free by the truth You now bring us.
Shine on me, shine on me.
(chorus)
Shine, Jesus, shine. Fill this land with the Father’s glory.
Blaze, Spirit, blaze. Set our hearts on fire.
Flow, river, flow. Flood the nations with grace and mercy.
Send forth Your word, Lord, and let there be light.
Lord, I come to Your awesome presence,
from the shadows into Your radiance.
By the blood I may enter Your brightness.
Search me, try me, consume all my darkness.
Shine on me, shine on me.
As we gaze on Your kingly brightness,
so our faces display Your likeness.
Ever changing from glory to glory,
mirrored here may our lives tell Your story.
Shine on me, shine on me.
