Representative Text

1 Shine Thou thro’ my life, O Savior,
With a pure and unfailing light;
Let Thy righteousness be reflected,
In a radiance clear and bright.

Refrain:
Let Thy glorious light, O Savior,
Thro’ my life in this dark world shine,
Leading souls from the ways of evil
To the pathways of joy divine.

2 May the words that my lips shall utter
Be such words as will honor Thee;
With Thy spirit of loving kindness,
May they e’er richly laden be. [Refrain]

3 May Thy light thro’ my daily actions
Bless some heart by its constant glow;
And some soul unto Thee draw closer,
All Thy fullness of grace to know. [Refrain]

4 Where the erring in darkness wander,
May the rays of Thy saving love
Through my life brightly shine to guide them
To Thy kingdom of light above. [Refrain]
