Shine forth like the sun Radiant beams and glory streams And hope springs forth like the dawn Your golden glow giving glimpses Of a gift greater than any on earth Life eternal and a new birth Shine and let your light lift The mind and body and soul With praise and prayer Pierce the very heart of darkness Sing and dance with every fiber And this Adoration we will employ Till the very rocks cry out with joy Warm the earth and hearth and home May the glow follow wherever we roam All the nations on earth will see And many people will come to believe From miles around they will flock To be close to you and take stock Of their own light that lives within Where they end, He will begin So, shine your light, your God-given sun Giving thanks and praise to the Holy One
