Shine, Jesus, Shine | by Graham Kendrick

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.

    As the God's children shine Jesus Christ though the song they had sung. Jesus Christ too, is planning and think about them, that they may live well like they lived before or more than what they had lived before. God is possible to do anything, May his great love and through his perfect Grace bless you now. ❤. Amen. Song goes well and its a well done and keep it up to sing Christians song. ❤. Amen. God's blessed and stay safe in God's protection on earth, as long as you have a life to live on this earth. ❤. Amen.

    Hi, Khrawbok! When we read the passages in Daniel, the gospels and in Revelation, we see that Jesus is radiant with glory. In the kingdom, God's radiance will replace the sun's light. Amen, God can do anything! Be safe and God bless!

    Hi, Cheryl! I haven't heard this song sung much in any church we attended. We happened to be present when the song was first played in any church, while at a Baptist conference at Glorieta, NM. It was a neat experience. Well it is SO hot here, this is causing some dehydration issues. I think it will be cooler this weekend, which will help. Thanks so much for your prayers! God bless!
