Let Your Light Shine Out

Jennie Wilson • English

Primary Scripture: 2 Peter 1:19

Verse 1

Let your light shine out, with a constant glow, In your pathway as you go, With a cheery smile, and a kindly face Brighten many a darkened place.

Chorus

Let your light shine out, Let your light shine out, Fill with gladness life’s short day; Let your light shine out, Let your light shine out, Scatter sunshine all along the way.

Verse 2

There are lonely ones, no true friend is near, On some hearts a shadow drear There are toilers needing a helping hand; Be ye ready at my command.

Chorus

Let your light shine out, Let your light shine out, Fill with gladness life’s short day; Let your light shine out, Let your light shine out, Scatter sunshine all along the way.

Verse 3

In the name of Him who on human grief Looked with pain and grave relief— Unto those oppressed and to those in doubt Let the beautiful light shine out.

Chorus

Let your light shine out, Let your light shine out, Fill with gladness life’s short day; Let your light shine out, Let your light shine out, Scatter sunshine all along the way.
