Shine on me, O Lord Jesus,
And let me ever know
The grace that shone from Calvary,
Where Thou didst love me so.
�My child, I am thy Savior,
�Tis not what thou dost feel,
But Mine own gracious promise
Which does thy pardon seal.�
Shine in me, O Lord Jesus,
And let Thy searching light
Reveal each hidden purpose,
Each thought as in Thy sight.
�My child, I am thy Searcher,
I try each loving heart,
For I would have most holy
All who in Me have part.�
Shine through me then, Lord Jesus,
That all the world may see
The life I live is Thy life,
And thus be drawn to Thee.
�My child, I am thy Power;
With those who hear My voice
I ever dwell, and use them,
Thus making them rejoice.�
Shine out, shine out, Lord Jesus;
Thou light of all the world;
O let Thy Gospel banner
Be everywhere unfurled.
�My child, hast thou forgotten
That Name is also thine?
My fruit is borne on branches,
Not by the parent vine.�
Arise and shine, Lord Jesus,
Thou Bright and Morning Star;
I long for Thine appearing,
When peace shall follow war.
�My child, before I gather
My family in one,
Its number needs completing;
Towards thus, what hast thou done?�
Alas, alas, Lord Jesus,
My life has been but vain,
How little satisfaction
Have I brought for Thy pain!
�My child, I still desire thee;
Go, spread the news afar;
Then shalt thou shine in Heaven
With glory like a star.�
