Shine Forth His Light

Shine forth His light, dispel the night!
Spread love that's true, let hope glow bright,
May your words be seasoned with grace!
Looking up to Christ, run your race,
Unfurl His undying love's might!

Light your candle’s love infinite,
Reflect the Son, good deeds highlight,
May others through you God embrace,
                         Shine forth His light!

Let your blaze all around ignite,
If not a lamp, be a flashlight,
May your radiance help them trace
God’s peace that nothing can replace,
                        Shine forth His light!

Bj Legros Kelley March 17, 2022 at 2:26 AM Oh my goodness Jo, this is amazing. Our only hope is in His Light, and yes, may we shine brightly through the darkness as His love and peace fill us up. What a precious inspiration, 'Let your blaze all around ignite, If not a lamp, be a flashlight, May your radiance help them trace God’s peace that nothing can replace, Shine forth His light!'. Yes, even a flashlight lights the path. Awesome, this is a fav!
