Holy Spirit, shine your light So my life inspires and ignites Love, passion, laughter so alive There is a breath of praise Within every prayer I utter A spark of joy in every smile Assurance that I know Him In the shining glow on my face Holy Spirit, shine your light So my life glimmers so very bright Illuminating the hope that is alive Within one who knows your guidance In a way that colors a life in hues Of compassion, kindness and truth Filling the moments with a sweetness That causes a soul to shine like the sun Holy Spirit, shine your light So my life is a reflection of the love That whispers and winds through my heart With a serenity beyond my control Encouraging, enlightening, reassuring The gentle faith that comes from knowing His grace is overflowing and shining Through my thoughts like a tenderness That softens the edge of my worst affinity Holy Spirit, shine your light So everyone can see the joy living inside The faith, hope, joy and peace The love that awakens my senses With a light that shines up to heaven Beckoning to God for the comfort Of a naked twinkle, like a quiet star That lingers in the darkness, promising To continue to shine as brightly As the feelings that thrive inside Holy Spirit, shine your light So everyone I know can see the belief Radiating off my thoughts, my dreams Fulfilling the visions of complete wonder With creative messages sent from above To the heart who is shining with a love That knows heaven is the home for those Who know God’s Son and live for Him So that a life shines with sweet grace Beyond anything that we might contemplate Holy Spirit, shine your light So that I sparkle even in the night As the stars twinkle and glimmer Remind me why I shine – To show the whole world – my new life A life designed to follow Christ!
